Graduation!

Well, karate graduation, anyway! All five of us graduated tonight! Finn received his green belt. Jim, Korri and I received our gold belts and Mac received his double stripe gold belt. It was a long night but so rewarding. The kiddos were super excited for their new belts, especially Mac. He's been talking about it for over a week and telling everybody he's getting a double gold belt!

Mac was first.

Then after a quick dinner break, it was Jim and my turn. Video taken by Korri! She's the only one of our children who actually wanted to watch our graduation.

No individual pictures of Jim and me, but here are all of our graduation group pictures! (Where's Waldo!! LOL)

Notice how happy Mac is? Mr. Newman (the one in red with his arm around him) might be his favorite person on earth!

So now Finn will be working toward his purple belt; Jim, Korri and I will be working toward our green belt and Mac will be working toward his double green stripe belt! Each belt gets progressively more difficult, so we'll see how things go!
