Karate Kid

Kobe started Karate about 4 months ago and it's been the best thing for him! These are from his belt test where he could earn his orange belt. He is so cute meditating. He had a really hard time with his chicken jump and he fell on his butt, hard, two times before he got it. It was sad because I could tell it hurt, and he looked over at me ready to cry, but then he looked around at his karate friends and the other parents and decided to tough it out. After he kept saying, "mom, I was SO tough!" His teacher is really awesome and talks to them a lot about being a responsible person. I LOVE KARATE. All the stuff you try to teach your kids, reinforced by someone cool. Plus, anything that makes Kobe a little "tougher" is fine by me.


OOH! That's going to hurt!

Just a funny thought for today:

This piano salesman at the music store has the WORST line and he says it everytime I see him. It goes something like this: Him: "Hi, how are you?" Me: "Good, how are you doing?" Him: "I'm not as good as you look!" He seriously says that EVERYTIME. The first time he said that I didn't understand and made him repeat it. My ears could not beleive someone would be so cheezy. Now I avoid him at all costs because that little line gives me the willies. Am I being harsh? I don't think so.

Happy Birthday Tiffi!

I give Zak my camera for 5 minutes one day and look what I find... Is he in LOVE or what? Have a happy 22nd Tiffanie! Don't be mad at me - you are gorgeous.

The best yet...

I love halloween! It has always been my favorite holiday. This year was great, except that we missed out on Water's Halloween yard. BUMMER! Here are some fun costumes - the best is my mom's. I still can't get over how much it cracked me up. Good job, mom!
