TAE KWON DO

We went to my mom's for spring break and the girls' favorite thing to do was to take a class at my brother-in-law's karate studio.  They loved it and I have to admit that he was a great teacher.  It was so fun to watch.  We'll probably do a class every time we visit now.



The goofy teacher is my brother-in-law.

Success!!

We have been hard at work over here trying to learn the names of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles.  Last year during general conference, every time a new speaker started talking Savannah would say, "Who's that guy?"  It really bugged me because "those guys" are important people in our church!  So I bought their pictures and during Family Home Evenings we would concentrate on one at a time, reading the information about them on the back and then I would pin it on the wall in the dining room so we would see them often.

We finished learning them just before General Conference.  During conference was test time and my girls did great!!  Savannah would hardly pause before saying the entire name of the person.  Mission accomplished!!
