The Fontana Files: November 2008
http://fontanafiles.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 29, 2008. My big sis, Sara Lynette Dager, is resting comfortably in Heaven since the morning of Friday, November 28, 2008. Whenever our family was all together, (made difficult by the miles between our homes), the girls would shop and hit the casinos to play the slots! We traded clothes, shoes, purses and books we no longer used or needed and would lay on the bed or sit around the kitchen table talking about nothing in particular. I love you sis and we all will miss you terribly. The m...

The Fontana Files: April 2009
http://fontanafiles.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 8, 2009. In March, Corbin competed in a local taekwondo tournament. Fred and I thought it might be fun if his sister coached him and surprisingly, she agreed! She has no coaching experience but in 4 years of lessons, summer training and competitive sparring, surely she must have soaked up some coaching tips! Here's Gabbie watching as Corbin and his first opponent meet in the "contest area" in the middle of the mat:. As for young Corbin, he put on the pressure, delivering a 7-0 win! All j...

The Fontana Files: July 2008
http://fontanafiles.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 6, 2008. The results are in! We returned last night from the Taekwondo Jr. Olympics in Detroit. Gabbie had a very tough division with 15 other girls. She was the youngest at 13 and the rest were 15-17 years old. Needless to say, she was VERY nervous as evidenced by this photo and I wanted to run out on the field and tell her it would be ok! About half the girls were third degree black belts and have a few years experience and medals under those belts! Other 10-11 year old blue belts. My Frie...

The Fontana Files: October 2008
http://fontanafiles.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 27, 2008. Why protection is important. Thank goodness they wear cups. It's also has to hurt when some girl keeps putting you in a headlock - a move that has nothing to do with sparring. No matter, Gabbie beat her and another girl. Monday, October 20, 2008. Last weekend the kids had their first taekwondo tournament of the season in Ft. Worth. Might I add, I have a brand new Canon lens that is nothing short of magic! Not bad for Gab's first time effort at competing in black belt forms!

Thursday, March 27, 2008. Food, Glorious Food! From the way I left this blog unattended, you'd think we were still on the highway, seeing the sights. Sadly, we returned home last Saturday after a 2 night stop over at my mom's outside of Shreveport, LA. I kept meaning. The road trip tale, but all I wanted to do at my mom's was sleep and eat. Speaking of eating. What is it about eating unusual food and lots of food that makes someone (me) want to grab her camera and record for all to see? I'm ashamed to te...
