Thanksgiving

I hope that you all had a Happy Thanksgiving! My family went over to my grandmother's house this year, it was so nice to be with almost all of my relatives. Although almost all of my aunts and uncles live in town, it's rare that the whole family is together. My uncle who lives out of town came with his wife for the day, which was really nice because we don't get to see them very often.

My mom and grandmother made a delicious Thanksgiving meal, with help from my aunt and I. I also made a pecan pie that came from the Pioneer Woman's website. It was so good!

Tae-Kwon-Do Demonstration Team

My 13 year-old brother and 11 year-old sister are both green stripe belts in Tae-Kwon-Do who recently participated in auditions for their Tae-Kwon-Do school's Demonstration Team.

The Demonstration Team performs Tae-Kwon-Do in churches, in schools, and at various events. The team consists of kids who are very talented in Tae-Kwon-Do because the team is representing their school.

My brother and sister just found out last night that they made it onto the team and are very excited about representing their school. They both work very hard at Tae-Kwon-Do and are really talented in the sport. My family and I are very proud of them.
