Wild dog on the loose

Well, she's not really wild! She's my dog Shadow. She loves to be near water, in water, etc. I took these photos of her the other day. She has some black material in her mouth that we found at a park. She likes to pretend that it is a wild animal.

On another note: I am starting to take Tae Kwon Do lessons tonight. It should be a lot of fun! I am really excited! I told my mom that after my Tae Kwon Do lessons are complete, I want to learn to be a snake charmer. I like snakes!

That's all for now...

Sweet victory!

What a great day this turned out to be. My mom is signing me up for tae kwon do. It starts next month. It is an 8 (or 10?) 1 hour session class. I can't wait! There are a few bullies in my neighborhood. I want to be sure I can protect myself if there is ever a confrontation. You can never be too prepared.

I took these photos last night of my mom working on my blog and my dad writing an English paper for college on his laptop. The cards are my Pokemon cards. I feel lucky to have parents who don't believe Pokemon is devil worshipping. I don't worship Pokemom. I just worship having my own beliefs and opinions. My parents believe my opinions are important and take me seriously. I am an important part of their life. I am not someone to be molded, seen, and not heard.

I'm such a lucky dude! Sweet victory is mine!

Karate, Tae Kwon Do or fencing?

I am at that point in my life that I am ready to explore different avenues, such as karate, tae kwon do or fencing. I am even interested in joining Cub Scouts. We'll see what pans out.

Good thing my mom has a running minivan to taxi me with. I love that van! It takes me to lots of cool places and not to school. Ya see, I am one lucky kid! I get to go to the science center, oceans, parks, libraries and all kinds of other places. I see the world first hand and not just from a book or classroom. I collect skulls, sea shells, and lots of other interesting things like feathers.

My photo debut

My name is Holden, and I'm really excited to have my own blog to share photos I have taken.
