Athletics and Chocolate icecream...

Ruby started at the local athletics club in the Tiny Tots age group.  She LOVES it !  So Fridays now are all about - "is it time to go yet?"...all day until 4 o'clock !  aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!  So next Friday I won't remind her that it's on until 3:30pm.

waiting for warm ups to start

stretch up high !!!

standing long jumps...

They also do a running race - about 50 m.  They had to throw nerf balls with a 'javelin' action, and rubber rings with a 'discus' action.  They jumped hurdles, and threw bean bags like shot puts into baskets.  The kids all had a ball.

Ruby got her number this week, so I'll have to get her a yellow shirt and sew it on.  She feels so special now !!!

All that talk about exercise has got me all motivated....to eat chocolate ice-cream..yummy !!!  I found this recipe for home made chocolate icecream, so we had to give it a go and it was delicious.

They were licking their fingers while I was still mixing...

And wiped the bowl clean afterwards.

The icecream was absolutely decadent...now if only I had a icecream machine....how far away is Christmas ???
