Karate kids

I am so glad I figured out how to make the iphone videos works on the blog! Now I can share tae kwan do class with you! This is E but B is next to him--I can see her in the mirror and then at the end. I just think they look cute! They started right before Christmas and they are doing pretty well.

My favorite thing about the class is that they have to learn home rules for tae kwan do students and they cannot move up unless both the parents and their teachers agree that they are doing everything at home and school that they are supposed to! There are 7 home rules-like respecting parents and other grown ups, be kind to siblings, keep the house clean, and do not interrupt adult conversations! I love that.

Enjoy!

Third post in one day

Yeah, 2 in all of January and now 3 in one day.

I got the home computer to accept the video file and it looks like this is actually going to work. So here is the hokey pokey. I had to shorten it a lot for it to work. Really no one cares except the grandmas. And don't listen to my singing!!

Too late request them for Christmas

Well I had some pictures on the iphone, so until I get some better ones here is K with no teeth.

This last one was at a birthday party at the roller rink last week, doing the hokey pokey. I have a video that is so cute! I am trying to find a way to convert it to a file the computer will recognize. The iphone will send it to youtube but that scares me--I need to research that!

And no I still have not eaten or showered.....

Nothing much to say right now...

Sorry! Not only have I been very silent lately, this morning I have been playing around with the blog design. I think I have been driving someone crazy who has been on my site. Sorry about that :)

As I said, yes I know I have been very quiet lately. I have been very busy and Luke has been out of town again. My computer time has mostly being doing PWOC work and I have been neglecting the blog. I need to take some pictures of the kids and post them. Mostly I have to get a picture of K on here with no front teeth. She is adorable--she has three front ones missing all at once! I also need to get tae kwan do pictures of B and E--that is something else I have been busy with!

Well as neglectful as I have been, I still have to go now. I woke up and started on PWOC stuff immediately. I have not showered or eaten anything yet today! I have to go!

And to the reader in California, I am so curious, are you sure you don't want to leave me a message and tell me who you are???

Haiti Relief Effort

I donated to Samaritan's Purse this morning to help Haiti, then I read Big Mama's blog post and saw that she gave some other options for donating. I copied her info for you if you can help. You can just click on any of these highlighted links and it should take to directly to where you can donate online.

You can text “disaster” to 90999 to give $10 to Compassion International's disaster relief program. They will be working directly with the local churches who know where these families live and will provide immediate relief to them. You can also click HERE to donate.

If you’d prefer to give to the Red Cross, you can text “Haiti” to 90999 to donate $10 or go directly to the Red Cross website to make a donation.

I don't need to say anything else, except every little bit helps.

“I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.” Matthew 25:40

Resolutions

I was going through some papers that K brought home from school this week and found her new year's resolutions list. I think it is for handwriting and English or something. She got 95/85. I think she should have gotten 100, even with the spelling errors.

Here is her list:

I am going to play my DS morr in 2010.
I am going to eat morr in 2010.
I am going to play morr in 2010.

Now those are some good resolutions. I don't like video games myself, but that sounds like a whole list that will actually make it through the year without one being broken!!
