Purple Belt

Jenna is still advancing and improving in Karate. She loves it. I don't know if I mentioned it before, but she is now sparring, and has been since she went to the gold belt. Being a girl, I was sure that the first time she sparred and got hit (or kicked) that would be the end of Karate for her, but she is still hanging in there and actually smiles while sparring!! Don't know if I could do that myself...

Weekend in the Mountains & Hair

We spent this weekend up in the mountains with my parents at their place. It was very relaxing and the weather was great! My parents found some old pictures and documents that had belonged to my grandmother and I spent a good part of the weekend scanning them into my computer . We even found my grandfather's graduation announcement (dated 1925) and his 5th grade report card... fascinating. Here are a couple of more recent pictures of my cousins from the 80's. I thought they looked pretty cool and very indicative of the times...
