Introducing OC Tae Kwon Do

Its really happening... doesn't quite feel real...

Cameron and I are officially business owners! We received the keys today to our very own Tae Kwon Do studio!!

In case you haven't heard, we are going into business for ourselves. We've been contemplating being our own bosses ever since we got married basically. And technically, we did run Kelly's Gift Basket for a while, but that didn't really go anywhere so we stopped after just a few months (but we made out even, so it was a good experience!). And now Cameron is going back to his roots, which I am very pleased about and very proud of him for. He has done Tae Kwon Do for over 15 years and he even ran his own business for a while back in the day. His pre-Kelly days. Sad days (j/k).

My husband is so happy these days. Right now he is over there placing the mats on the floor with his brother. Even before we had the keys he's been driving by the place almost every night to plan and imagine things out. Its so cute. I'm so proud of him.

So here's the plan - we'll set up and move in as much as we can this week. Mats, desks, supplies, changing room set-up, phone, utilities, etc. THEN we leave for ENGLAND next Wednesday and hopefully he will have accomplished enough to set his mind at rest for a little while during our trip =). When we get back we'll start taking sign-ups for our INTRODUCTORY SPECIAL= 2 Private Introductory lessons for only $19.95 and we'll include a FREE uniform! Once we have enough students (by the first of November or so) we'll start classes!

So if you know anyone who may be interested, tell them to check out our website! WWW.OCBLACKBELTSCHOOL.COM.

And watch out, in a few years I just might be a black belt myself...

2 Years!

On September 1, 2009 Cameron and I celebrated our 2nd anniversary! What a thrill it has been, and how fortunate I feel to have found a man who makes me laugh, allows me to open up and completely be myself, loves to dance, loves to be with me, loves the Lord. I love him for his hard work, his passion for life, his desire to do the right thing. I'm glad he's not perfect and I'm glad that he has (finally) gotten me to see that I cannot and do not have to be perfect either.

For dinner on our actual anniversary we went to one of my all time most favorite restaurants - The Old Spaghetti Factory! It was SO yummy! There's nothing better than mizithra!
Then, over Labor Day weekend, we had a wonderful time staying at the Grand Californian at Disneyland! It is such a nice hotel, and we were able to stay using our Disney Vacation Club points so it was a deal. When we arrived for check-in, they told us that there was a special wine and cheese event planned for Disney Vacation Club members which was unexpected and turned out to be a very nice event. We received as a give-away this collectors-edition painting which features Mickey and cute representations of all the Disney Vacation club resorts.We spent the weekend looking for Hidden Mickeys in the rides and had a blast! Totally puts a different spin on going on rides when you are searching out the hidden mickeys and following the clues. Can you spot the Mickeys in the pictures below??Here are some more fun pictures of the weekend.

Thank you to all our family and close friends who have supported us and built us up over these past two years! We are so grateful to have many wonderful role models and examples of Christ-pleasing marriages at Christ Community Church!
