Board breaking week at karate has been so fun! All three boys have broken all of their boards with focus and strength. Fun to watch!

After school playing and hanging out in the library - my favorite room in the whole house without people in it, but add these four little people in to the mix and I am in heaven :)

Will and I are an accomplished and practiced bread-making team, but today we made the BEST banana bread we have ever made -- the whole loaf was gone a few hours after it came out of the oven!

That's what I get for punching and punching and punching the bag at the gym today! Great workout.

Will had just finished his violin practice today when he had the sudden idea that he knows the next song in Book 1, Allegro. He said he remembered it from our old house--maybe I missed something because I was thinking "yikes, he hasn't even begun that song yet" when he pulled his violin back out and played through the entire thing within 2 minutes! We texted his teacher to tell her and she was as excited as we were! Way to go, Will!

Will loves to decorate for holidays and always asks if he can help. He has great ideas and makes the house ready for a celebration!

I took Liza to get a Keva between her guitar lesson and tumbling -- this is the best shot I could pull off of that quick camera-dodger! She is a delight and told me some very entertaining junior high stories...
