THEY DID AWESOME!!
We could not be any more proud of each kid on that team. Tournaments are double elimination, they won 3 and lost 2. They took 17th out of 64 teams. Logan was high scorer in three out of the five quizzes. They earned a bronze medal during one of the quizzes, which is a team medal and is only earned if each child scores a certain number of points (don't ask me how many, because I keep forgetting!). The theme of this team was definitely "teamwork". Not one of them could have done any of this without the others and that is what made them so special.Now we are enjoying a lazy week of NOTHING!! Well, the kids have nothing. In fact, Logan was telling someone that it was nice to get up in the morning and have nothing to do (oh, to be almost 10 years old again)!! I, on the other hand, have about six months of piles, cleaning, scrubbing, etc. to try to take care of. I had no idea how much I wasn't getting done during the quiz season until it was over. But, I truly would not have traded one minute of it!
Not to worry....the week of nothing is soon coming to an end. Our dear friends from Oregon, are coming this weekend. The parents are headed to a business meeting in San Francisco and I get to enjoy their five kids playing with my three kids. You all might think I am crazy, but I would rather say....I am Blessed!!
