Finally

I've been somewhat incapacitated the past few weeks due to fatigue. However, I think I'm on the upswing and ready to get back into things, including blogging. I really don't have much to report as things have needed to be slow at our house. Abram is really into K'nex these days, Chase loves to bowl on the Wii, and Seth is very excited for me to start teaching him piano lessons (we're just waiting for his books to come through the mail).

This past weekend the boys had another wrestling tournament down south. The day started early as we had to get up around 5:30 to make it there in time for check-in. They love these things though, which is still beyond me. I was such a scared and shy little girl at their age, and I can't fathom tromping out onto a mat in front of all those people and grappling with a stranger. It truly amazes me.

They had a great time, and the exciting thing is they both placed first in their brackets. This is Seth's first "gold" medal, and we were all so excited for him. It's always a relief as a parent to see their hard work pay off. He was flying high, that's for sure. Here are some pictures, but beware...their last tournament is coming up, so I'm sure there will be more to come.

Seth is on the left. He looks ready to pounce!

I just have to point out that Chase insists on wearing a wrestling shirt to these things, too. He grabs one of the boys' shirts from last year, some sweatpants, and he's good to go!

Though Chase didn't come home with a medal, he did find the perfect stick, I mean gun. He was more than happy with his treasure.
