Here's a photo of Ridge and me wearing our Ju-Jitsu uniform. Many martial arts refer to this as a "gi", pronounced "gee". However, the Brazilians seem to call this garment a "kimono". Ridge's is actually a judo-style gi. Apparently, the folks at our BJJ gym got tired of waiting for the Brazilian customs officials to stop being on strike, so they ordered a few kid sizes from somewhere else. Aaron and I have the blue gi, from Brazil.

The other picture is from Holt's pre-school graduation. They had a wonderful little ceremony, complete with fake diploma.

Lately, Holt has been testing the bounds of honesty. Sometimes I really wonder where his head is at. We went to the Texas Folklife Festival yesterday and he watched a few dance groups perform. He really seems to enjoy watching people dance. Today, when my Aunt Donna come over, she asked Holt to tell her about the dancers he saw yesterday.

"We didn't see any dancers," he replied.

"Oh? Your grandma told me you saw some people dancing yesterday." Donna questioned.

"Aw, she was just joking you. We didn't see anyboy."

Hmmm. I'm really not sure I understand the way his brain is working. Oh well. It gives us a good laugh, anyway.
