Karate Sheai

Xander and Tyler participated in the annual Karate event called Sheai. The event is held up in a canyon somewhere and everything is outdoors. It makes for a beautiful setting. Xander and Ty went up early in the morning and began the first half of the day's events. I along with the other boys joined them for lunch. I usually come up about noon and bring my boys food and their Sensei, Angel lunch too.
Then I hang out for a couple hours and watch them do their stuff. The younger boys run around the canyon and explore. Don't worry, they always come back. It's always been a fun thing to watch and it gives me a chance to sit in the sun, bask in the beautiful surroundings and let my kids play in God's backyard. Practically Heaven.

I don't know what Angel is saying, but she looks tough.

Sure they look like friends now.

Until Xander puts him in a hold and he's gotta remember how to get out of it.

Tyler doing his thing.

Now onto a few pics of my other 2 men.

Monkey see.

Monkey do.

The boys found this little lean to.

 And thought it made a perfect place for their own personal fort. 

They spent hours playing around this area.

How cute are they.

Nothing like a giant fallen tree to entertain 2 boys.

Alright, back to karate.

Time for a little sparring.

Xander and his friend Aubree did more talking and giggling than fighting.

Xander got a good hit on Angel.

Tyler sparring.

He won that round.

Who had a blast?

THIS KID!
