Go Red!

Saturday was a fun filled day at the Valley Fair Mall. We went there with the Utah Kids Club and did theGo Red 3K Walk for the American Heart Association. This month is Heart Awareness month for women. There were all sorts of booths and free creamies when you finished the walk. They had some different companies there doing demonstrations, like dance and karaoke. They also had a martial arts group there. Maddie had a martial arts group come to her school a few weeks ago and she could not stop talking about it and that her teacher broke a board. So when they were asking for a volunteer from the audience I did a Jedi mind trick so that Maddie would be chosen. She loved it!! The video is her breaking the board. I've been thinking about putting her in karate because I think she would really enjoy it and I know that it is really good for the self-esteem. The problem is that she beats up on her little sister enough right now as it is. I don't think I want her knowing "how" she can beat her up.

There were a lot of games and free stuff. Maddie and Emma learned how to make noodles with the Young Chefs Academy and did some jump roping with the AHA. I took a lot of pictures but I will spare you and only put in the ones of us doing the walk. We won some really cool prizes like free ice skating at the Olympic Oval and Jason and I won two free tickets to a Murder Mystery dinner and the girls won free meals at AppleBee's, as well as some other fun things. There was a big inflatable bounce house and slide and so of course we had to spend some time playing there. It was a long afternoon and we were all tired, hungry and cranky, but still had some fun times.
