Turning 50!

Well I did it I finally turned 50 but not before I got my Black Belt and Sensei-ship in Kishindo Martial Arts!

Black Belt Test  July 27, 2011:
I took the day off and had been practicing almost nightly for over a month on the various techniques, katas and knowledge I would have to display.
I got a 89% out of 100.  I was exhausted when I was done it took almost 5 hours and the last was with sparring.  I still have much to learn and work on to get better but black before 50 was now a completed goal!

Turning 50!
Well Aug 3rd, 2011 was my 50th Birthday... do I feel 50? well somedays I feel a bit slower than others but no I don't know what 50 feels like.. does it feel different?
My Brother and His wife Debbie had a Birthday party for me on Aug. 6, 2011 so I was able to share my day with my friends and family.  Master Davis and his wife Gigi came, Tim and Heidi Irwin with their kids Torrie and Tim came, Roxann and Steve Hardcastle came with their son Cole and his friend. Juanita my older sister came, Jamie, Jax and Trevon all came up to enjoy some bowling and the Christensen Clan came! Leslie, Paul, Cambria ( who turns out to be a fiend at bowling), Braxton and Gunner.  As well as the Hosts with the Most Debbie and Charles.  My younger brother Joe couldn't be there due to work.  We call my mom and dad while we were bowling so they could be a part of it also :)
I had a blast we got to do 2-3 games and I think all had fun, Braxton and Gunner got a little bored on game 3 and Jax did some games around that same time.  I appreciate my Little brother Chuck and his wife Debbie for organizing this fun day!

Here are some lovely Highlights!
