Chase qualifier Wrestling meet Grants pass

So I haven't been very good about taking pictures in the last few weeks.  We had a great New Year's with friends.  We started the New years with decluttering goals.  We want to simplify this year and get rid of a bunch of stuff.

This weekend we took Hope on her first road trip and went down to Grants pass so that Chase could wrestle in the qualifier.   We let Conor bring his friend Caleb and Chase had a friend that rode down with us.  We stayed an Steve's parents house and had a great time.

Chase did really well even though he didn't qualify.  He lost the very first match by points.  His weight was 56 lbs so he was the bottom of that weight group with kids up to 60lbs.  He won the next two rounds and then had two left.  The fourth match he lost by points at the very end when the kids made a move and flipped him.  Chase was upset but he was over it soon and realized how close it really was.

We were so very proud of him and how hard he worked.
