Congrats Bobby!

Congrats to Bobby he did amazing at his tournament. We are so very proud of him. He placed 1st in forms (this is a traditional demonstration of a tae kwon do form). He was pretty much flawless. He worked very hard and it paid off. Then he had to spar. He took 2nd place in sparring which was so good. He won every match except the last one, where he fought girl who was a purple belt. He did really well, but this girl was quick! Everyone was blown away at how well he did for his first tournaent. Here are some pictures of the awesome day.
Bobby introducing himself to he judges. The girl standing in the white is from his school. The other kids in the school of all ages were so supportive. They are wonderful. Mr. Rios (the instructor) made them these amazing hoodies to wear as a team. They looked very cool!

The kids checking in and getting ready for competition. The guy standing behind them is Bobby's teacher. He is such a great instructor, and is so great with the kids.

Bobby showing off his bling! He is AWESOME!
This is a video of Bobby's last match. It happens to be the one he lost, but it took that long for us to figure out how to use the video function on my camera.

Good job Bobby. I will remember to never cross that kid. My kids think that they are karate experts because they have seen Kung Fu Panda. Bobby knows real karate. Very cool.
