Garrett's Solo

Boy am I posting a lot lately. I guess that is because life is busy! Last night Garrett performed his first Solo Ensemble part. He also did his trio with Myles and Heath. He played it for our Home Educators group since SE was scheduled the same day as Big Blue.

King Kong

.

Ok, so early last week we get a call for the upstairs renter. There had been this little dog in the yard all week and was crying all night. They cannot have pets in the house and they were leaving (truckers) on the road this next week. So they called us and asked if we could take care of it. Levi and Shelby fell in love with it. The pound could not take it until after lunch so it spent the day in the living room in a box. Sydney was so good. I thought for sure she would freak out when she saw Levi carrying it in and out of the house. They named him King Kong since they thought it looked like a gorilla. I thought it was one ugly dog. It had a horrendous under bit so all you could see of it's face was it's bottom teeth.

Shelby & Sophia

So Miss Shelby really loved this wrestling match! She got to spend the whole day with her baby cousin Sophia. She has a lot going for her...she is s baby, a girl, she cannot tell Shelby to go away or be quite. So far Shelby likes her a whole lot better than she likes her brothers.

Garrett Big Blue

Garrett is doing very well this year. At this point he is undefeated. Please keep this is your prayers...the only thing that has kept him from going to state is girls. Please pray that there are no girls in his weight bracket next weekend at regionals. If he runs up against a girl he will forfeit. We do not believe boys should have that kind of physical contact with girls. At regionals 2 loses puts you out of the running to go to state.

Levi Big Blue

Levi, well...Levi is not having a good year. He hurt his elbow at Thursday night practice. He has been wearing an ace bandage on it the rest of the week. His first match the boy grabbed his elbow and Levi grimaced. The coach noticed it and directed his wrestler to not let go of that elbow, which is how the rest of the day went....

Seth Big Blue

Seth got stuck with two girls this time around so he had to forfeit. So actually he had only one match. Our caoches know that our guys will not wrestle girls and do their best to help out. The 2 girl's names were Loren and Alex which could of very easily been boys' names. He gave it his best and got a very cool trophy!

Big Blue Champs

Well, we had last week off. Not that we were not busy, just not wrestling... This week was our home match. Traditionally we have a blizzard either the night before or the day of. Thankfully today the weather was beautiful. I am a day behind because Steve's folks, brother, sister-in-law, and baby niece came to watch the boys. It was a long day and we all went to bed early and exhausted!

Garrett -1st place (still undefeated)
Levi- 3rd place
Seth - 4th place

I'm uploading the videos now and they should be ready by morning.
