Way to go!

Saturday Bug and Doodle had their Karate belt tests. They take Karate classes from White Dragons of Bushido. They have a dojo in Ogden, and also hold some classes in Brigham City. Both boys enjoy Karate (well- most of the time Doodle does- but it's sure good for him to pay attention to someone else, to concentrate on the steps, to memorize forms etc) They both did awesome.

Doodle was certain after the test on Saturday that he had passed the test- he was testing for the Little Dragon's Orange Belt (white belt with orange stripe). He really knew his stuff. He was right. At class tonight they had the belt ceremony- and he got his orange belt. He was quite proud.Bug wasn't so sure- he was testing for Purple belt in the youth/adult class, and there were some complicated forms he had to do. I wasn't sure he was even ready to test- but the Sensei said he could give it a try. He did great! Tonight at class- he received his Purple belt. The belt ranking goes Yellow, Orange, Blue, Purple, Green, Brown, Red then Black. So Purple is moving up the ranking quite a bit!
