A Little Man, a Mom, and a Mat

May 5, 2011 in Taekwondo

Guess what? Last Saturday, I competed in my last taekwondo tournament of a 9 month long season. Brent and Thing 1 were away on a Boy Scout Campout so it was just me and this guy! He was my travel companion, cheerleader, photographer, and pack mule. Aside from not getting first in both of my […]

What a weekend!

April 11, 2011 in Musings, Taekwondo

Another weekend filled to the brim and spilling over with a crazy hodgepodge of activities. A taekwondo tournament. A sudden urge to pull off the freeway when we saw a sign that said “Lake Elsinore Historic Downtown”. A wonderful little Italian restaurant with a character of an owner. A long talk in the car with […]

Girl on the Go

March 15, 2011 in Taekwondo

And she is on her way to a nervous breakdown.  Kidding.  Sort of. Between traveling, getting sick, moving, preparing our rental, taekwondo tournaments and normal and not so normal life stuff like going to the grocery or vacuuming, (we may or may not have just vacuumed for the first time since we moved a month […]

Score!

January 27, 2011 in Taekwondo

This past weekend we went to Arizona to visit my grandparents and to compete in a taekwondo tournament.  It was supposed to be a fun mini vacation.  Unfortunately, my lack of sleep finally caught up with me and I spent a good part of the last 5 days in bed sick.  Aside from a little […]

Family Bucket List

January 20, 2011 in Musings, Taekwondo

Saturday morning, my family and I sat around the breakfast table.  Rather than attack our “to-do” list that is the length of all of our arms combined (I’ll explain later why it is so long.) we ended up procrastinating enjoying each other’s company and making a family “bucket list”. 10 Things: Our Family Bucket List […]

Kicking Off the New Year

January 3, 2011 in Taekwondo

Brent and I  I kicked off the New Year early last week by attending taekwondo winter boot camp.  Yeah…pun intended. For 4 days, Brent and I kicked and punched alongside each other. Each day we did 45-60 minutes of cardio and strength, 45-60 minutes of kicking, 45-60 minutes of sparring and sparring drills, and 45 […]

Mojave Madness

October 6, 2010 in Musings, Taekwondo

I love starting a roadtrip while it’s still dark.  There is nothing quite like watching the sunrise welcome a new day of adventure. Saturday morning, Brent and I, alone, took off for Vegas with a change of clothes, two cups of coffee, beef jerky, bananas, and some sparring gear. We decided to take the road […]

Foe to Friend

September 27, 2010 in Taekwondo

I worry.  I fret.  I over-analyze.  I get things wrong.  Sometimes. I was wrong. And this is wrong…. …WTH?  Watch out, balloons! This past weekend we had another taekwondo tournament so that meant last week was spent worrying about MMA Mama showing up.  She did show up.  I spotted her within 10 minutes of arriving […]
