- I am thankful that the Peterman’s are here visiting us this week. The girls are all having a staycation while the men work. Photos to follow 🙂
1st Taekwondo Tournament
Nadia competed in her first tournament on August 8th and she was both excited and nervous in equal quantities. She did a great job and won 2nd place for forms. She didn’t place in sparring, but she gave it her all. It was a great day for her and she is so excited for her next tournament.
All the people from Excel Academy.

Casts off!
Once Amelie wasn’t feeling any more pain she started to run around and play like normal – even with two casts on. So she ended up cracking one of them open 9 days after her surgery. I called Scottish Rite and explained the situation. They asked me if I wanted to try and take the cast off myself since I had seen it done so many times and I said yes. We got it off and took a photo for them and once the doctor saw it he said we could just keep it clean and keep our appointment for the next week. Then the next day she cracked the other one open! So Mike took that one off and we got her feet cleaned and wrapped in ace bandages because the toes themselves were still sensitive.
The following Wednesday we headed for our check up and Dr. Stutz said that her feet looked great. He told us to come back in 3 months so we could see if any of the nails had started to grow back. We pray that the answer is no!
