Bay Days TKD demo

We did a Tae Kwon Do demonstration for Bay Days (a summer Ashland festival.) The kids enjoy it and it is good for the gym. Last year Todd broke 7 bricks, so this year he attempted 8 bricks (see pictures below.) The bricks are patio bricks from the local lumbar yard. Xander got to participate this year too, but he was most excited about his dad and the bricks. 

He told all the kids at school (and teachers) They even got to see a picture. Xander related this to me and said, "but I got to see it for real, like a movie." Xander also asked me, "Does everyone know that my mom and dad can break bricks?" I asked, "what do you mean by everyone?" X: "Everyone in the world." Me: "No, no everyone in the world." X: "well, what about all the Tae Kwon Do students?" Me: "yes bud, all the Tae Kwon Do students know."
