Its been a busy April. Rainy, cold and busy. One weekend was a tournamet in Billings South Dakota and other in Clinton Iowa. Who ever said taekwondo didnt involve exclusive travel opportunities?!
Billy is on fire! Lots of gold medals and grand championships coming his way. He works hard both physically and mentally, and its paying off. In fact, he's starting to beat bigger, taller and heavier kids so that's fun to watch.
