We had to leave our house bright and early at 6:00 AM this morning!  We had an hour drive up to a wrestling tournament that Chandler was wrestling in!  He had to weigh in at 7:00 AM! 

Last weekend at the tournament Chandler got the GOLD MEDAL!!!!!!!!!

He ended up losing his 1st match, pinning his opponents in his 2nd and 3rd match, then losing his 4th match. He was heart broken because he lost 2 matches. He was hoping for another gold medal today.  He did GREAT and we are very proud of him.  We always tell him that it's not all about winning - it's about doing his best and never giving up!

We think he ended up getting 4th place but one of the coaches said he got 3rd, so we shall see when they pass out the medals at practice.

He might not win every time, but if he is always in the standings, he will go a long way with wrestling!!
