Watch us grow!
Peanut had his first piano recital today. He played an Irish folk tune called “The Galway Piper” and did a great job despite the nerves.
Here’s a video of Peanut when he was just 17 months old playing on Mama’s old piano that he now has in his bedroom. He’s come a long way!
We had an impromptu belt test for Peanut today. He went to his last class and Sifu knew we were moving so he tested him early (and didn’t charge the usual fee!)
All I wanted was for him to test and pass without the green belt given to him but Sifu Sam insisted on the full test and ceremony. We will miss this place and all the sifus there.
We also recreated a photo that we took 3 years ago when they first started.
Look how cute they were back in 2018!
Just as KK did a video of her SF home, we had Peanut give us a tour of his Alameda home.
KK and Peanut made balloon swords and even a holster. So funny!
They look like sea otters in the water.
It’s a back-to-back morning with KF and swim so we stopped at Jane Sweeney Park between the two classes.
This park is huge and has lots of fun things to explore.
The best part was the zipline.
KK is working on her flip turn today.
Peanut practiced diving for rings today.
Our community pool was closed all last summer and finally opened yesterday. This was such as treat. Peanut even exclaimed “I can’t believe we’re doing this!”
There’s a reservation system and we can have up to 6 people in our party. So, we invited Maya and Alek to join us. They had so much fun!
KK went to swim today and she is now in the Pre-Competitive class. She just does laps for the full 30 mins. We caught her butterfly stroke on video today. Looking good!
