Taekwondo

We had a fun evening on Wednesday. Both Kaelee and Maddee were promoted a belt level. They love taekwondo and are fierce competitors! Even Dylan, though he is not officially in taekwondo, had to wear the girls' small karate pants and one of their old belts. He got right in there warming up and kicking and working out just like everyone else. I guess we will have to get him going as a student soon. I am so proud of my kids. Jalynn has her black belt and is working towards her second don. Taekwondo has been a fantastic activity for our family.

March!!!

I am so glad it is March and February is over. I really do like February, at least a couple of days of it, because after all my last name is love. However, it is really just a dark and dreay month. Snow, mud, cloudy days aagggghhhhh! With three dogs mud is a huge bummer! Maybe now there can be hope for James a job with Spring almost here. This unemployment is deffinately not fun!
Just found an old friend and I am so excited to renew that incredible friendship. Friends are such a rare gem that truly do get better with time! They are what keep us going and encourage us to be better. I haven't talked to her too much and already she wants me to be better at keeping up with blogging. I read a great article a few months back in Family Fun, one of my fave magazines, about how a family used a blog as a family history and to keep other family members updated. At the end of the year, the family would complie the blog and have it printed in hardbound for their family records. How cool is that? I am going to try that. We will see how it goes.
