We spent today in a gym…full of people all dressed in white with belts of different colors.

Tate’s color was yellow.

It was a day of fighting. And fight well he did!

He came in second place!!

karate-tournament-025

He also competed in forms.

And came in Fourth!!

He had an awesome day.

There were many creative displays of fighting and forms to be seen during the day. I love to watch the Weapon Forms. There was one young girl that used battle fans. It was a pretty form and was just beautiful to watch. The Continuous fighting matches are INTENSE and something that I hope Tate never wants to partake in…I  imagine as he gets older he will though. He is already looking at training for Weapon Forms.

I tried to take a few picture of the trophies, but I just couldn’t get them to come out right. So, those will come on Monday hopefully. I hope that you have had a fabulous weekend so far. What did you do today?

I loved PLAY-DOH as a child…and every child I know loves PLAY-DOH. I still love PLAY-DOH. My creations with it have become more elaborate than they used to be…my favorite being a deserted island, palm tree and lawn chair, surrounded by the “ocean”. When we drag the PLAY-DOH out it is always a competition to see who has the best creation and who has the weirdest. Tate usually gets the award for the weirdest, great shock I know. Now, PLAY-DOH has so many activity sets that make playing fun. The newest is the…

This is such a fun kit! We loved taking everyone’s “order” and making their spaghetti as they requested…even if it was a little outlandish. And it became more outlandish with every order. We had tons of fun though…as we always do with PLAY-DOH!  I love how creative children can be when trying to think up the next thing to make. Check out the new Spaghetti Factory and have your child cook up a creative “dinner” for you tonight!
