State Wrestling

At the end of February we went to Casper, Wyo. for state Wrestling.  I had two brothers that were in the tournament, Tenor is a Junior and Brock is a Freshmen.  My boys were counting down the days until it was the day to leave. It took us eight hours to get there but all the kids did really good.  We got there the night before so the kids could do some swimming with there cousins.  Friday morning the wrestling started and went all day for two days. The kids did really well.  we packed toys and treats to help entertain them when the kids we know weren't wrestling, plus they did have there cousins there to play with them.

Our Family with my two of my brothers.


 
This is all of my family.  This year everyone was able to make it to watch the boys wrestle.  It is the first time we have all been together in three years.  We had a great time together.  While we were there we got to celebrate my Dad's 59th birthday and Camille's little girls first birthday.

This is a picture of all my siblings and my parents.




Grandpa and Grandma with the grand kids, four of them are missing, and there are three more on the way when this picture was taken.
Tenor ended up taking first place at 112 pounds.  It was very exciting to watch him.

Brock got fifth place.  We had fun watching him too.  It was sad to see him lose because he has been wanting to be a four time state champion for so long, but he can still go for three.  We were proud of him though.
As a team they got first place.  Three of the boys that took first place were Teicherts which made Teichert the most winning name in the state of Wyoming.

We had a great weekend watching the boys and are already looking forward to next year.

Sleeping Beauty

The other day I when I couldn't hear Elly playing anywhere I was hoping she had laid down somewhere and fallen asleep.  To my surprise she had laid down on my bed while watching the boys play and fell asleep
 with the "Sleeping Beauty" movie she was wanting to watch.

Our second snow storm all year!

Since we have only had two decent snow storms all year so when this second one came we grabbed our sledding things and headed to Grandpa's farm to enjoy it while it lasted.  It was so wet.  We were all soaked pretty fast.  We had a great time but Mason and Elly didn't last as long because they were so wet.  Tyler loved it though.
 Mason looked so funny in this ski mask.  He was saying cheese for the camera.
Elly was ready to go home after one ride.
 Here they are just getting ready to head out.
 It was a good thing we brought hot chocolate because the kids were pretty cold after a while.


 You can tell by the look on her face how much she loved it.
 My hot chocolate junkies.
 Tyler was the only one that would go back out after some hot chocolate. I would have but someone had to stay with the kids.
We had a great day together as a family.  Hopefully we get more snow next year because winter isn't very fun without it.
