So, on May 2nd, we attended Keven's 2nd judo tournament. He had his friend from church there, so it made it less boring for him. They got to warm-up together, which made it so Keven actually had the desire to warm-up! This time it went much faster because they had the jr's going on both mats at the same time. Keven went out FULL FORCE! He was fighting hard. We told him to be aggressive, and he SURE was!

Keven with his opponent, who was more than a year older and 2 belts higher!
Not making it easy!
I said, "Let's have a nice picture" This is what he did.
Keven was hungry, so he decided to take a bite out of Papa. HAHA!
Below, he's doing some weird video game pose. HAHA!
Keven won 2nd place in his division and is here receiving his silver medal. He is showing off his medal in the picture below. We are so proud of his accomplishment and that he fought his hardest. He wasn't timid at all and his sensei was BEAMING at how well he did! Hopefully at the next tournament, his sensei won't be ref'ing and will be able to coach him. Next one, he'll shoot for 1st, but as long as he does his best, that's all that matters! GO KEVEN!

Nathan and Natty don't test out of white belt until June. Smiles. I can't believe how fast the kids are all growing up! I wish it would slow down some. Smiles. Stacey
