Pics from AAU Virtual Nationals 2020 - Forms

Here’s some pics I got from today. 

AAU TKD Virtual Nationals 2020 - Forms

This is the video that won T Bronze for Forms at the AAU Virtual Nationals 2020!  He learned a lot watching the Silver and Gold medalist and now knows where he needs to make improvements for next years competition. We were all impressed watching them all compete. Competition was tough but we are proud of T for doing so well when Forms is not what he loves most. T is really looking forward to the day when things fully open back up and he will be able to compete in sparring again!!!  #AAUTKDVirtualNationals2020 #BronzeMedalist

Trim Work Is Done

All the trim work is done. Next up will be painting and insulation. 

Repairs Are Coming Along

The drywall guy was in today and got a ton done. There is no longer a hole in our living room ceiling. The back door is dry walled and insulated and now ready for the new trim and paint. T’s bedroom is ready for paint so we can put it back together. Lots of paint going to be going on. 

Current Situation

This is just to repair one small area. He’ll have to come back another day to paint the entire ceiling and will have to mask everything off at that point😳.

Getting Stronger!

T is working on strengthening his hips, quads, groin, and knee muscles. He’s getting stronger. 

T is big time in the throws of puberty. So much changing and growing going on really fast. The chiropractor said that’s most definitely why he’s popping his hip out so easily and causing muscle strain to his groin. His muscles are stretching because of the bone growth going on and it makes those areas vulnerable. It’s all a part of growing up but I don’t want him to grow up😭. 

This video is what he and his coach have been working on to help him get stronger. 

Psalm 40

Psalm 40 is highly recommended if you are in fear (especially those in fear from this pandemic), trials or need security. The LORD will bring you up, set your feet on the solid rock, establish your steps and put a new song in your mouth.  Place your trust in Him.  Amen!

The Flexibility of This Kiddo😳

He did a ton of stretching today. His coach is having him do a ton of stretching to help his leg/groin area heal up much faster. T is ready to be kicking again because it feels good but his coach wants him to wait until Monday. I wish my body could still move like that...LOL! 

Deck is L👀king Goooood!!!

Second coat of color stain is on the deck and now we let it cure. Scot and I work well together😁. Love having a husband who knows how to do so much and is willing to let me work along side him. #projectbuddies #geterdone 

I also color stained the posts as well. 

I’ll have to do the under side tomorrow. Letting this cure. I stained these first thing this morning. Then I took to getting the second coat on the deck with Scot’s help. It’s all coming together so nicely. 

This Happened Today

So we finished the deck sanding, blew off all the debris, and color stained the deck. 

Living in the country you can’t do work of this nature without some visitors as you’ll see in the pic below. I’m sure he has a gray belly now...LOL! 


I actually did stain the deck as well even though there are no pictures to prove it...LOL!  I’m the photographer in the family so any pictures that get taken are done by me. So glad to be to this stage with the deck. Praying it doesn’t get too cool too fast and the deck gets dry before dew starts trying to set in. It really looks fantastic though. Hoping we don’t need to do a second coat. We’ll see tomorrow once it’s had some time to cure.
