Wrestling

Kyle decided not to wrestle this year. It was okay with us, although it would have been fun to have him be with Chad at the High School. It would have made all of Chad's time away worth it for me. We "made" the little boys wrestle. Landon and Spencer were willing, but we really made Jared. It is such good exercise and I felt like they needed to be doing something during the winter. Jared hated it and we only made him do one tournament. 

Here is Landon's first match at State.
Here is Jared's match
We were proud of them for going and trying even though they really didn't want to. Afterwards we took them and a couple of friends to Red Robin. That was the highlight of the night. 
Chad helped coach HS wrestling again this year. Every year I wonder if it is the right thing for our family. It is a big time commitment especially since he is already out of town a few days a week. He is gone to tournaments most weekends. They had an awesome team again this year and took state for the fourth year in a row. 
They won by a huge margin. I think they were 106 points above any other team. After they won state we followed the school bus and fire trucks to the school for a party. It was fun to see the kids that Chad had gotten close to come and thank him, That's when it's all worth it!
