tournament
well, things worked out to where we were able to go to the tournament...yaaaay! us three girls competed, along with several others from our studio.
it was great, t had been practicing tung goon for her competition form. at the last minute, we both decided to go with basic form 2 - as it had kicks and we were more confident with it. well, she begins with basic form 2 but forgets the first kick in it, so she reverts to basic form 1 which has no kicks. unfortunately, she didn't get an award for it, but we all have the memory and laughs of thinking, "what in the world is she doing?" lol
now for the long-await for pictures...click on any picture to view more at my flickr site. it seems i downloaded tons, and still have quite a few to i could download!
here's richard...he's one incredible karate kid! he placed 3rd in weapons of about 12 kids, 1st in fighting, 1st in forms!

Wow! You go girls! How fun!
Great pictures. It all looked like so much good fun.
The fault on 'The Picard Song' has been corrected. If you go back, you should see it now.

hey! yeah, everything is fine. "girl me" was just having a rough time with some stuff, and the song kinda describes it. and basically, with my spiritual gifts, when i "read" people, i feel like they are feeling. odd, huh? plus God's been showing me some stuff along the same lines. but yeah, im doing fine. Blessings!
It looks like fun. I remember going to the tournaments... They were always a blast. Looks like you have quite a kick there :)
You are right that trophy is huge!!!
Glad you had a great weekend. If your little sister is strong enough to tote that trophy, she must be plenty tough. I'll bet you don't pick on her too much, do you? :)
Nice pics!
Very cool - sounds like you had a lot of fun.
Just a question - in the picture entitled "stretching"...are you on the left or right? Just curious. :)
She would be on the right lol...JJ...
nice pics looks like fun!!
I am jealous of all this karate action. I miss the old days. Oh well. Now all I do is sit and write and read and go to class and occasionally I get to have fun on the weekends. Just kidding.I do enjoy where God has me, but it seems like you all get to have fun and stay fit and disciplined. Hope you and your fam are doing well.
The picture of Faith and the trophy is just priceless. It is awesome that you have all those pictures :)
I am just so bad about karate - I don't understand a lot of it. But I am learning alot through you :)
