Quinn\’s Yellow Belt Testing

Quinn started Taekwondo in April after he saw this particular school, Tae Ryong,  perform a demo at his school.  He asked if he could sign up for classes and I immediately said YES!

He has been going to class 2 – 3 times per week and working towards his yellow belt.  (I think he\’s going to tell me it\’s a gold belt but I\’ve already named all my files yellow.)   He has such a great attitude about going to class and giving it his all.  As he claims, sports are not is thing so it\’s great to see him excited about a sport.

We couldn\’t be prouder of our little ninja!

Here he is with his main instructor, Master Solstig, in a fierce pose.   Master Solstig makes the kids laugh and have fun, but always requires them to focus and do the moves right.   Mental and physical.  We love this place!

Cub Scout Bridging

Quinn\’s cub scout den had their bridging ceremony at a local park.  It was a cute idea to have them walk over the bridge to move from Wolves to Bears.
Getting his new Bear scarf.

His den mates.

All of the kids that bridged with their troop masters (I\’m sure my lingo is all wrong).

Getty Center Field Trip

I accompanied Quinn\’s class to the Getty Center for a field trip before the end of the year.
I think Quinn is already d.o.n.e.   He\’s taking a quiet moment among the chaos.  As you can see, lots of parents were on the trip too.

We were fortunate that the grandmother of one of the kids in Quinn\’s class is a docent at the museum.  So Quinn\’s class got a specially led tour.

Ha ha…look at Quinn\’s face :/
