Memory from four years ago, practicing the ukulele.

We are in training for our Karate black belts. The test will last for seven hours.Hopefully, we will schedule our date soon, but until then we have to work hard to accomplish and study everything on the test. Hopefully we will get back and post videos and photos of some of our training . Today we ran five miles without stopping and did over 1,000 jumping jacks, 2000 is on the test. We are so proud of our mom. Its not like she has to keep up with us, we have to keep up with her. She is so fast. We will be back soon.
New baby just arrived. Savannah and Jeff just gave birth to a little boy.

All family members are welcome to post on this site.
Seth and Noah won the Julius Summer Miller Physics award and the Sir Issac Newton Calculus ward. Newton is known for developing the laws of motion and gravitation, which undoubtedly led to his work in calculus. Noah and Seth are always helping Luke and Levi with their math and introduced them to calculus.

Fun in the leaves, a few months ago, just now getting some videos posted.
Here's a memory from last summer. We learned all the Elements of the Periodic table, their atomic number, the alkali metals the alkaline earth metals; the pnictogens; chalcogens; the halogens and all the noble gases.
A few memories
Time with the horses/video
Karate memory. Soon, we will be in training for ten years in karate, 8 years in Jiu Jitsu and recently started training in Kra Maga. We all are in review for our adult black belt so we have been really busy trying to remember all the katas and self defenses from the beginning. Once we are ready we can test for our black belt We will have to be strong enough to break a brick with our bare hands and pass the physical examination including lots of running, jumping jacks, push ups, mountain climbing burpees, stretching and numerous other exercises. Luke is in the adult class with us and Levi is a second degree brown belt in the advanced Jr. Black belt class. 
Memories
Mom bought a total of 42 of these Old Navy Hoodies this past Christmas. Pictured are two of her God sons, wearing them at the music academy. Noah taught them private Karate lessons at the music school, while mom was teaching her students piano, ukulele and guitar, prior to Covid. Their parents were our first piano teachers and the owners of the Acadmy
Levi learned Hallelujah on the piano over after only listening to the song several times. He has picked up the piano quickly and very well and knows all the chords by ear. We are very proud of him although his first love is karate.

Seth, Sienna, Noah and mom are getting ready for another stripe in karate tonight.
Memory of Sienna demonstrating her kick.
Wearing our martial arts jackets
Congratulations to Noah, mom, Sienna and Seth on earning another stripe on their karate belt last night. They are getting closer every day on earning their adult black belt. Levi also earned a stripe last week in the advanced kids karate class. Congratulations again to each of them. Luke has just started the adult class and so far is doing really well.
This is what we did this weekend. We took our new Huffy Bike Cruisers, eleven to be exact, on a few biking trails and had an awesome time racing and exercising. No phones, no cameras, just all of us on our bikes. We are going to start doing this every Saturday morning. We are also reading two Bible stories a day. We just started with the Miracles of Jesus. Next week we will start the teachings of Jesus. Reading stories from the Bible has helped Luke and Levi tremendously with their reading and comprehension skills. Seth and Sienna are going to try for the early enrollment, where you receive your high school diploma and Associate degree at the same time. They can't start until they are sixteen but we have decided to work and study hard in Trigonometry, Geometry, Algebra, Calculus and Physics. We will continue with our music and Martial Arts classes as well.
Down memory lane This was the last photo taken of all of us, before Barrie Lynne passed away and eight months after Nikolai was adopted from St. Petersburg, Russia.

We have two Savannah's and two Hannah's in the family. Here's a photo of Savannah E W with her four children. Savannah and her husband Jeff are expecting another little boy in three weeks, baby number 5. Savannah earned her science and biology degree several years back and some day would like to return to school and pursue her second dream to become a Pharmacist. She always wanted a large family and so happy she was able to make this dream come true. Holiday fun. Jump rope and running on our trails challenges.
New Huffy Beach Cruiser bicycles and new Old Navy Hoodies for everyone in the family.


We are standing beside a lucky bamboo tree our brother, Gabriel planted years ago in our woods. We have several of these trees.
