belt graduation

Jamison was so excited for this day to come. Belt graduation. He even told his teacher that he was not going to be in school because he was graduating. She was a little confised until she realized it was martial arts graduation.He has earned his white/yellow belt and I have never seen him more proud and excited. Mr Tracey tested for all of the needed skills and then had the kids demonstrate their skills. (video of the mountianeers sweep and muay thai punch combinations below). "Jamison has demonstrated a black belt attitude, a real can do attitude." says Mr Tracey. and now he cant wait to put the belt on! He was glowing from ear to ear! Great work Jamison!

see how Jamison keeps his guard when he is throwing his punches. Mr Tracey announced that Jamison did the best job keeping his hands up! WAY TO GO! (btw, if you put your hands down Mr Tacey bonks you in the head)

For the boys holiday party we made these crazy snowmen.

I like manipulating food into fun things. I have to say they dont look as good as the picture on the website, so I can say my career in food styling will be a short one. They were still a hit with the first graders and their teachers. Even cats love christmas. This is Indy's favorite hang out. I think he is on the look out for the man in red.
