Karate Tournament!

Alex and Gracie both participated in the annual National Karate team tournament today. Both kids did fantastic. Gracie got to go home with a trophy (it was her first tournament and she competed in a category where every kid gets a trophy), and Alex and his team mate were smashing with their bo form. They did not place for an award. We were thrilled to see Alex's best friend, Max, at the event. He just started karate this winter and was competing in his first tournament, just like Gracie!
