10-17-15Eila’s birthday party was a luau! On the beach!

Did you know my mom was born in Hawaii? I come by the hula honestly.

Strangely though, Dad took me to the party and Mom stayed home.

aikidomeepleMom is also making an aikido piñata for Sensei’s birthday party.

It’s not a death piñata or anything. See? Friiieeendly.

deathmachineTom and I are painting a dragon on Mike and Gary (from aikido)’s ‘death machine.’ Mom keeps pointing out that with no moving parts it isn’t really a machine.

I would like to point out that they asked Mom to do this.

S: No!
M: You can pretend they’re prey.
S: Yes!

 

(Editor’s note: Much laundry was hunted. Not so much put away.)
