Last Saturday the Kirby family skipped soccer and headed to Bloomington, IL for a Tae Kwon Do Tournament. Chet and Katie had been practicing hard for the tournament ever since their instructor mentioned that they might be ready to compete. Katie was a little nervous and unsure about competing, she doesn't like to fail at anything. Her instructor was very good as easing her mind and preparing her, so when the day came she was confident and ready knowing that we everyone only expected two things from her 1) To do her best and 2) To have fun. Well Katie did just that and she took 1st place! She was so excited/happy/proud it was great to joy she was feeling when she realized she had won. Chet also did his best and had fun taking 3rd place, missing second by only a tenth of a point. Both Katie and Chet had a great day and are looking forward to competing again next year.
