Fun We Had Together




Wow I am figuring out how to use my scanner, but now I've got to buy some more ink! Karate is something Chris and I used enjoy doing together. As you can see by the pictures who was better. :) Now that I'm beginning to figure things out maybe I can post a little more about myself and family. I don't have the knees anymore to do Karate,but I did work my way up to a blue belt which I am proud of myself for doing. I was so proud the first time I broke a board. Chris was able to do two boards at the same time. I never had the natural talent that Chris did. He loved to spar and I preferred the forms. I still treasure our certificates of honor that we both received. It sure is good to start remembering the good times we had together. For all you healthy active people out there,Karate is great exercise and a lot of fun! In the picture I placed 2nd in my age group at the regional tournament (not bad for an old lady) and Chris placed 1rst in his age group. He had several trophies for 1rst and 2nd place . You can't tell I am proud of him, can you? lol

That's such a cool picture! And I think it's so nice that you and Chris did karate together. I remember when I was little and my dad used to take me outside to play catch or kick a soccer ball around I really felt like he loved me and knew how to connect. I'm sure Chris felt the same way.

It's clear that you're a wonderful mom.

Wishing you well,
NOS
