Family Fitness Fiesta

I have been busy and am also having a lot of fun being the PTA president this year. I am blessed with a great board and committees for the various events, which lightens my load.

This month has been Hispanic Heritage Month, and this last week was also our Green Ribbon Week (health and safety focus). To culminate both, we held a Family Fitness Fiesta at the school this last Thursday evening. Although I helped with the overall ideas, it was nice that I did not need to help with all of the small details in the planning. I liked just showing up and helping during the event, without stressing about it too much ahead of time :)

It was a great success! Our turnout was about triple the turnout we had at our Fiesta last year -- I believe we gave out about 450 sets of nachos!



There were crafts, pinatas, and nachos for the Hispanic Heritage aspect. To celebrate Green Ribbon week, we had a bike rodeo. We also had someone come to help us register bikes for free with the city.



Ryan was not able to be there due to a church commitment. I appreciate that my kids are old enough that they could do their own thing while I helped out with the event -- it was a great night!
