Wrestling

The boys are almost done with wrestling so I thought I'd better get some pics up here before the whole thing is over. I will not include the ones we have where they are being pinned to the ground repeatedly and mercilessly :-). They are actually doing fairly well, I think, for this being their first year. They are having fun (which is the whole point, right?) and both say they want to do it next year.
Here are the boys gearing up for their match...man, are they ever pumped up! Eye of the tiger, man!

Caleb waiting to get matched up with another first grader who weighs 39 pounds...not an easy task, let me tell you.



Cameron is holding his own. It amazes me how these boys can completely bend both of his arms in opposite directions and he will smile the whole time. But if his big sister so much as pinches him he is limping for an hour...go figure.

Caleb is the one on top. He is a feisty little guy! He got his fingers completely bent back in practice yesterday, it hurt pretty bad, I could tell...he is one tough little dude.


Other news:

We winterized the camper today and are retiring it until next Spring.

We are all exhausted from raking leaves at a friend's house today...we still don't have any leaves of our own to rake :-(.

Final plans are being decided tonight (hopefully) for Christmas vacation, so some of you may be getting calls to clear up your schedules :-).

Car broke down again...not looking good for the home team.

That's all for now. Cam wants my next post to be about his Boy Scouts.
