Amazing work again this year on all of the gifts, Santa Bees! The care and creativity everyone puts into them is a wonderful reminder of how awesome this community is!

Finisher: Dance for as long as you want!

This could be a very long workout!


Thank you, Santa!

And thank you for inviting Shelby to the party too! It means a lot to me to have her there, and I know she will be so happy to see all of her Bee friends! (Plus Cooper, of course! And Bennie and Ollie. Shelby will make friends with the kitties too, if they are willing.)

Gift for @Saffity :

The Most Adventurous of Them All

It had been a long and hard year in Southern Ontario, and Saffity really, really needed a vacation! Carrying her little Bees up and down, rocking them to sleep, chasing them around the house, starting a new job, and all the other challenges that life threw at her could not be managed just with micro workouts and a standing desk. This year she really needed to get away from it all!

But of course, going away needs more than wishful thinking… or does it? Hmmm… the Hive is a magical place after all, and when the Bees decide that magic can happen, then by all means it will happen! Saffity read about a magical Hive-land where fevers did not exist, everyone slept through the night, and lots of deliciously healthy food dripped from trees. This was her destination for sure! And how could she get there? By building a rainbow road, of course! That way she could take her little Bees with her, and all the other Bees of the Hive could use the rainbow to go on vacation too.

To build a rainbow road one doesn’t need bricks and mortar, but a song, a dance, some sprinkles, and just putting one foot in front of the other! So Saffity went to work:

20 march steps
10 bridges – hold long enough for a little Bee to crawl under
20 side leg raises
20 butt kicks
10 baby squats – every time you go down you need to high-five Munchie and Biggie
20 back leg raises

Filler: In between each exercise you need to dance one round of the Macarena with Munchie and Biggie

3 sets=level 1
5 sets=level 2
7 sets=level 3

The more sets done, the bigger the rainbow road and the more Bees will be able to use it to travel to the magical Hive-land. Go for the max!

With the help of her little Bees Saffity enjoyed her rainbow road building activities and suddenly it was there! She could already see the magical Hive-land shimmering at the end of her rainbow!

It’s party time! Let all the Bees dance the Macarena!

Santa, I don't know who you are yet, I haven't had a chance to check, but I just howled laughing at my desk. We LOVE LOVE LOVE DJ Raphi in our house, and the adventure to build a rainbow road is epic. We are all going to love doing this together, and since my Dad and his Wife (Papa and GK) are in town, they will be mighty entertained too.

A more perfect adventure and workout could not have been written for us!

Oh goodness, I hope you and the whole family enjoy that workout @Saffity

I might see if I can rope partner into doing mine with me.
It won't be this evening though, since there's an impromptu Valheim stream and if our friends are in the chat it may be a loooot of squats to do xD
We make them do squats for every death in Helldivers, maybe they will make us do squats for every death in Valheim... That would add up
