March

March has been a busy month so far! Here are some things we have been up to...

The Lovell elementary, middle and high schools had a combined POPS concert that included the choirs and bands. They prepared and played/sang popular songs. It was a great concert and they all sounded so good!

Although Carson is only in band, they had some of them join the choir for a song.

 We celebrated  St. Patrick's day with our annual St. Patty's day dinner. We enjoyed rainbow fruit salad, corned beef and cabbage along with veggies and asparagus. The boys always enjoy when we do something fun and out of the ordinary for our meals.

We have been busy every weekend with wrestling. Two weeks ago, we traveled to Thermopolis on a Friday to stay the night for a tournament the next morning. We ate at a Mexican Restaurant for dinner, the boys swam for a bit and then it was time for bed so we could be up at 5:45 to make it over for check-ins on time. Both boys had a rough weekend. Travis lost all of his matches but took 6th. Landon won one and lost two and didn't place. He had a huge bracket of 13 kids, but is improving each meet!

Landon ordered mini tacos for dinner and they were seriously the cutest little tacos you've ever seen!

Landon got his first bloody nose during one of his wrestling matches.

 One of the mom's of the boys on our wrestling team always takes pictures of all the kids during the meets. The boys love getting to see the pictures she takes and I love that she shares them with us.

A win in Thermop

Last weekend we were in Cody and it was a better tournament for both boys. Travis was in a round robin and won one, lost three for a 4th place finish.

Landon (somehow) lost two pounds during the week and was able to wrestle down a weight. He had the biggest bracket of the tournament (16 kids) and ended up taking 6th place. It was the best I have seen him wrestle all year! I was so proud of him. He could have place 5th, but didn't give that match his all because he said he was just too tired. We're going to have to work on not just giving up!

The elementary school had their annual books with buddies where you go to the school, have a muffin and juice and read a book with a family member or friend. This year, Christian got to come and Landon was super excited to have his dad there to read to!
