Gladiators

Today, two gladiators will fight!

Five-time champion - Spike Helmet versus Six-time champion (cheers from the crowd) SPIIIIIKE FIIISSST!!!

Spike Helmet's weapons are a sword, a shield, and of course, his helmet.

Spike Fist's namesake weapons are his spiked gloves.

A little thing about Spike Fist, his lungs were ripped out by a lion and replaced with robotic lungs (including gills for underwater fighting).  These lungs keep his body supplied with oxygen during long matches.  His legs were also ripped out by the lion and replaced super-springy legs.

Who will win?

So far they are swinging at each other, smashing, punching, kicking, slashing, and ramming...

What's THAT?

Spike Fish punched Spike Helmet in the guts, and he's down.







Wait, wait...Helmet gets back to his feet and flies forward, slashing Spike Fist across his face.  Fist is down, but rolls to his feet.  Taking off his glove he punches Helmet in the head.  Helmet falls.  Spike Fist turns to the judges, waiting for their judgment.







Thumbs up, Helmet has lost, but will fight another day.



SPIKE FIST is the CHAMPION!  He will take home the Golden Cup!





LEGO Club



We have a LEGO Store near where we live.  One of the best things about this is that they have lots of activities each month.  The first activity we did was to build a tree.  This was a free activity that anyone could participate in, and we got to keep the tree!




On St. Patrick's Day, they had a contest to find a four-leafed clover.  Would you know my little brother would find the clover first!  He will never let me hear the end of this, so I will post his picture instead of mine.  However, the LEGO store builders were nice, I received a LEGO Chima set too.

We decided to take all of our sets and build a larger Chima.  It was so cool!


Another activity was the opportunity to take a picture with Spider man.  That same day, was another build, this time it was a helicopter!

The theme for May is going to be Star Wars!  I am so excited!!!  We are going to have a Droid search!

The LEGO store has other things too, speed-building competitions, specialty set builds (for FREE!) and opportunities to take pictures with comic-book characters.


P.S. Next blog will be about my gladiators.
