Blue Belt Test for Alex (July 2013)

When Alex started Tae Kwon Do, he really wanted to get his black belt. We decided to support him in that, but encouraged him to make a goal that was a little nearer. He and we decided together that he would complete 18 months of participation. We'd see how far he could get and then reevaluate. He decided he wanted time for other pursuits like swimming and piano. So, the last belt he tested for was blue. I was more sad than him to stop Tae Kwon Do. I loved going and I have good friends there. I can't wait until we are in a position where I can start. I want my black belt!!

Our Bishop, Greg McNeil came to watch Alex. It meant a lot to him. Bishop always teases Alex about doing "Kung Fu," so he was very excited to have him there so he could show him what he really does. 

Way to break that board!

Melissa Turner also came. 

As did Aunt Katherine. :)

Alex and Master Karstadt.
