Yesterday was a big day for Andrew. He tested for his black belt. He did a great job and passed. This is him with his instructor, Mr. Banford. We just love Mr. and Mrs. Banford. They are so good with the kids and create such a positive environment for them. Andrew is now called Mr. Jones at karate. (He told me that if I want to I can call him Mr. Jones too. Yeah right!)Thanks to all who came to support him--Claudia, Julie, Tyler, Katie, Mom, Dad and Ryan. It meant the world to him to have you all there.

Christian earned his Second Degree Yellow Belt and got his Cheetah patch.
Taekwondo has been such a great thing for the kids. Not that we have perfected these things, but it helps teach them respect, teamwork, endurance, work, focus, patience.
