My new template and why my husband is a genius

So I finally decided to take a look at Pyzam.com since so many of you have used their templates, and I managed to find one that fits me pretty well, I think. It's frustrating to search under music and have 99% of the results be celebrities which I could not care less about. But I was persistent and came across this one. I hope you all enjoy it.
Now, many of you know my husband, Jaaromy, and many of you may even like him. I just want to say that he is a very smart man, which is why I married him, but his spectacular genius has finally served a useful purpose. Let me explain: When I put up the new template the black background was transparent so the picture behind was showing through the pictures of the kids. No problem to my genius husband, he merely fixed a few lines of code and BAM! no more background ruining the pictures. Then I noticed that the Youtube videos were wider than the black background, spilling over into the side or being cut off altogether. No problem for Jaaromy the Genius. Then I noticed that the Blogger bar and the Pyzam.com bar clashed terribly with my elegant black and white format. Once again, My Husband the Genius fixed it so it all matches and looks pretty.
My Jaaromy, I think I'll keep him.

Nathaniel's Karate Class

I've been sitting on this video for a while but I've finally decided to post it. Nathaniel has been in a Karate Class this year and as most of you know, he's not very aggressive. In this sparring match with Maddox, who is 4 and SO cute, he doesn't win but it's the most he's ever fought back. Usually he just lets them push him out of the circle. So GO NATHANIEL!

Afterwards you can hear the teacher say: "That's the most aggressive I've ever seen him."
Nathaniel gets paired with Maddox a lot because he's little but tough and Nathaniel is bigger but more cautious so it balances out. I think it's been really good for him. I'm glad we could do it this year, since I have no idea where we'll be next school year.

Nathaniel's Blog

In case you didn't get the e-mail, Nathaniel has started his own blog. I figure it's a good way for him to keep writing this summer. Plus, he has a way of saying things that just can't be duplicated. I hope you all take a look and enjoy a glimpse into the inner workings of a seven year old genius.
