Wrestling Wrap-up

Well, this weekend ended Chris' 2nd wrestling season. I must say I am glad it is over for another year. I enjoy it to a certain extent, but boy is it time-consuming. Chris has had a really good season this year. He was very disappointed at first when he found out he couldn't wrestle varsity, but I think it turned out to be a good thing for him. I think he placed in every tournament he wrestled this year. He had many wins - many by a pin. He lost very few matches and was only pinned once. He finally finished first last week at North Cobb, and finished 2nd this weekend at the Cobb County Tournament. I took some pictures Sat. to post, but something happened to them. I do have a couple from earlier in the season. You just gotta love what they wear!! Katie's friends always get a kick out of that when they come with her to a match:) Now he is chomping at the bits to get on the lacrosse field!!

When we got home from wrestling on Sat. we discovered our heat was out on the main level of the house. We are building fires and using space heaters until the repair man comes on Wed. At least we are gone most of the day. We had our small group over last night for the Super Bowl. I love the time we get to spend together. We always have a great time of fun, food and fellowship.

I'm sitting here watching the men's final of the Australian Open. I know who wins, but I still want to watch the actual playing of these 2 great tennis players. One day I'm going to be as good as they are!! Ha!! Ha!! If I could only be 100th as good as them I might actually win a match occasionally. Last spring my ladies team made it to City Finals, which was very exciting for us all. But since that time, because we have had to move up a level, I feel like I have hardly won a match in ALTA, T2 or now in singles. I always play a close game, many times 3 sets and tie-breaks included, but just can't seem to put it away. I still love to play though and think it is great exercise. I can't wait to get back out with my ladies' team this spring. We have a great team that plays really well together and I must say you don't find that everywhere. Here are a couple of pictures from spring tennis at the City Finals.
