Nicholas had a Karate Party this year. He got to bring some of his friends and show them all the fun moves he gets to learn in Karate. They all received a pair of Nunchaku's. The kids really liked that part!! There were games, Randy and I really had fun with the balloon race where you couldn't use your hands or feet.
We had ordered a "Blocker", it looks like a padded bat, to give to Nicholas for his birthday, when Mr. Dixon brought it out we tricked Nicholas into thinking that it was a karate paddle for birthday spankings. It took a minute to make him realize that it was really for him to practice his kicks and punches.
Nicholas got to cut his cake with a real samurai sword with the help of Mr. Dixon. He was one bring grin while he was cutting his cake.I believe that this was his favorite party ever. All day Saturday he practiced with his Nunchaku's and his blocker. Thank you Mr, Dixon for all your hard work!!

So What Have We Been Up To???
In the last 6 months our lives have changed dramatically!! Randy got a new job, I quit mine, and the biggest change was we pulled the kids out of school and started Home Schooling! So for the last few months I have not been that social because I am giving the kids my all! We finally got a groove with our schooling, the kids are doing great, and I haven't lost my mind!
We drive to Safford twice a week for Karate. In November we went camping at Riggs Lake that is on top of Mt. Graham. It was the last weekend that it was open before it closed for winter, it was beautiful but so cold. In December we had a nice Holiday. I have been learning how to sew, I made Emaleah an apron for Christmas, her reaction was the best gift I could get! January, wow that month came and went quick! We went to the Sonoran Desert Museum in Tucson. I loved the Mineral exhibit, Emaleah loved the Hummingbird Room, they flew all around you! Nicholas just loved that the trip was school for the day!
The months are just shooting past us, it really is hard to keep up. I have lost track of most everything going on outside my home,I may not know what is going on around me, but I know what my kids are doing and that is the most important thing in my life! I apologize to everyone, your Christmas cards are still sitting on the shelf by the front door. Randy always brings the mail home so I hust have not been to the Post Office. I promise to get them out, there is a great photo of my Karate Kids in there for everyone!
I promise to try harder to keep in touch!
