My favorite is golf though. There's nothing like getting out on the course on a nice, sunny day. Of course, right now, in Massachusetts, it's way too cold to do that. We have too much snow on the ground! I'm glad the groundhog saw his shadow! Maybe I'll be able to get out there and play soon!<br /><br />Your blogging buddy,<br />Mr. Avery<br />Plympton, MassachusettsMr. Averyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12343726826300425252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633466533683944100.post-38300432029341498482011-02-03T17:01:55.485-08:002011-02-03T17:01:55.485-08:00Dear Hannah i like your karate.

My goodness gracious, I absolutel...Hi Hannah joon,<br /><br />My goodness gracious, I absolutely, positively, loved your post. You know how much I love karate... it was truly a treat to watch it. Not only is Master Nicky your sensei, but he is mine in addition to Adia's sensei as well. <br /><br />Your technique is magnificent. The execution of your movements were phenomenal. I'm very very very proud of you.<br /><br />A few days ago I had a karate test and I earned my blue belt, which is 4 belts after the initial white belt. I had butterflies in my stomach and was very nervous. <br /><br />It was our 100th belt test at the dojo, can you believe it? We celebrated this event by enjoying a gigantic cake, which was cut by Master Nicky with a long and sharp sword. It was so much fun. I wish you were there to celebrate with us.<br /><br />My favorite combination that I saw you do was the spinning roundhouse kick. Also, I loved how you and Master Nicky were pretend fighting... really cool.<br /><br />Also, your Mom, did a fabulous job filming. I'm so impressed with her. From this day forward you should grant her the privilege of being THE family camera man (to be politically correct, I meant camera woman). <br /><br />Can't wait for your next post.<br /><br />Be blessed,<br />Adia's blue belt Karate MAMAAva (Adia's mom)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633466533683944100.post-68712511928408714312011-02-01T19:16:58.560-08:002011-02-01T19:16:58.560-08:00@ Nicole,

Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to watch my video and comment.<br /><br />When I first started doing the spinning back kick, I had a very hard time doing it correctly. I had to practice a lot to master it. I guess, as with everything else, practice makes perfect!<br /><br />Although, I have heard of Taekwondo and I knew that you practiced it as a child, I do not know much about it. Maybe one day you can show me some techniques.<br /><br />Love,<br />HannahHannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07736556257299258342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633466533683944100.post-56921719073464575692011-02-01T18:27:28.738-08:002011-02-01T18:27:28.738-08:00@ Miriam,
