Here are the very tall, very talented Clausson men. I would like to point out - Wade is 6'4". Ten bucks says the nephews will end up taller than their dad. What? Dang!
The day of the testing was a mixture of emotions because after 15 years, Sensi Carbone and his family made a very difficult decision to close the dojo. It is a loss felt by many families. Keith, Michele, me, and even Kathryn Sliwa have been members of the dojo over the years. I was lucky to be a small part of a wonderful group of people and Steve and Naomi have been a part of my sister's family for close to 12 years. Plus, if it wasn't for Steve and I dojo, I would not have my certificate from my testing stating how I am a ninth Kyu-ho. And the joke that I am a certified ho will never grow old in my eyes. We will all miss the dojo - and now we have to find some other way to keep Mike and Chris out of trouble =)
I scanned this picture of us back in the day from my testing with Kath. 
Look at how small and cute Mike and Chris were - this was how old they were when they started karate and look at them now!
The handsome two muggin for their Aunt.
