Wrestling in Cokeville
We took the boys to Cokeville for a little league wrestling tournament yesterday.(March 12, 2009)
This was their second tournament and for some dumb reason Cokeville did not have a 7th-8th grade division so Tyler  did not get to wrestle this time.  He was a little bummed but he made a great assistant coach for the littler boys.

Cole and Jared did some serious flexing to scare the opponents
(I know real scary Huh!) 
MUSCLE POWER!

ABBIE 
Abbie was the cheerleader and helper with Lyndie.
LYNDIE AND DAD

Lyndie got sick of the wrestling  quick and was not the most happy spectator.

Corey

These two pictures of Corey are of his last match.  I did not get to see the Other matches they split the preschool-2nd grade from the 3rd-6th grade so Ty and I went to help Cole and Jared. Corey won this match by a pin.
Corey wrestled Daine Waldron a second time this year at this tournament.  Daine is also from Star Valley and from a big time wrestling family.  His Dad coached in Juab and is the coach for our Junior High currently.  Corey and Daine went into over time (sudden death) in their match here and Daine beat Corey by two points.  It was intense they are both good competitors. Tyler Wrestled Daine's older brother Gabe last weekend in Evanston and barely lost as well it was also a great match.  Our boys are learning lots and having fun.  We feel fortunate to have the waldron's here to challenge our boys.  

COLE

Cole Wrestled Preston (I don't remember his last name) for a second time as well.  They wrestled each other in Evanston last week.  I went to school with Preston's mom, Angela,  it was fun to see her.   She and her husband live in Hennefer with their 3 boys and 1 girl.
Cole is a scrappy little wrestler and does a great job.
Cole lost this match. This kid was quick and one year older than Cole.  Cole fought hard and did awesome.

COACHING FROM DAD
Jason did pretty darn good coaching the boys these past few weeks after going from the High School to little league.  It is not easy for him to tone it down with the littler guys, I was proud
of him though he is fun to watch. (As you can see Lyndie is not super happy here either she was done with it all.)                 
JARED

This is how Jared looked  through most of his matches (on bottom with a great big smile on his face).  He was just happy to be there and wrestling like his big brothers. 


Jared assumed this position under the score table while watching cole's match.
Jared got this pin for wrestling and had to show it off to every one.

You seriously have the cutesy kids! I loved Jareds big smile, he reminds me of Kurt so much-just content with wherever he is! We miss you guys, and thanks for all the prayers on our behalf. Hopefully we will be calling soon with some good news.
