Garrett's WestField

I posted this short video to show a move Garrett makes. Unfortunately for his opponent, it pulled his shoulder too much and he left shortly after this video ended.

Here is a full match of Garrett's

Levi took the pictures of Garrett. They had the older boys in another gym. Steve sat with Seth and I ran back and forth. I had to video so Levi took the pictures. If you look in the 2nd match the man in yellow is the father of the 3rd match. While Garrett was wrestling his first match the man turned to his son and said "You're going to get hurt!", right after Garrett did his Alligator Roll. The other boys could not believe that Garrett was only a 6th grader. They were 7th graders.

Levi Westfield

When I saw Levi's bracket I thought he was in for a long run. The boys looked so much bigger than him. He managed to hold on. He pinned his 1st and 3rd matches and won his 2nd by points. He placed 1st!

Seth Westfield

Seth was the smallest kid there (30 lbs) the next smallest were 35 & 38 lbs. So they bumped him up so he could wrestle. These kids were quite a bit bigger than him and much more co-ordinated. It did not bug him. He had fun and got a medal. The pictures from the first match were lost in my error (see below post) so thankfully I had the video of the first match. The second match people kept getting in my way so that one did not turn out very well, but Steve got good pictures.

Boy, has it been a day. I know I promised to get the pictures uploaded today. While I was uploading the videos I decided to clean off my SD card on my camera. Well, in the midst of moving the pictures to my external so I could put them with my digi-scrap stuff somehow it deleted all of my pictures on my card. It asked if I wanted to delete the 2 pictures I had just moved, I hit ok and the whole folder went....Thankfully I found a program that did SD card recovery and I now have all 400+ of the pictures back. So tomorrow after I get the sermon/choir uploaded on the church web-site I will go through the pictures again. The videos are just about done uploading and then I am going to bed. I will post the videos tomorrow too.

Snow, Snow and MORE SNOW

Well, it is snowing again. The rail was clean yesterday.

Give Garrett the camera to take a picture and I got about 20...

The beautiful snowy sky.

Warm-Ups

Just thought you would enjoy some good warm up shots. I took these for the top of the stands so they are not the best. Just far too cute to pass up! We had a very small team due to the -20 degree weather.

Garrett's

Garrett was in a 3 man bracket this week. He won his first by points (4-0) and his second he pinned. The video that will be uploaded tonight is of his last match.
