Wrestling Banquet

The Wrestling Banquet was a few weeks ago.
Do you know what that means? Wrestling is OVER!! .... at least for a bit.
Hillcrest did really good this year. They had a wrestler place 5Th at state! That's the first time they have had anyone place in over 6 years.
They had a great team, and I'm very proud of them and their coach . wink wink
I LOVE going to the banquet. They had a slide show, gave gag gifts to all the wrestlers, and just shared fond memories from the season. The parents are invited, and it's just a time for everyone to be together. Tyler loves coaching. Don't get me wrong, it's wicked hard. He has way too much responsibility, but he does a great job. He really does such a good job. I'm so proud of him and all his hard work. It's hard to be a "wrestling widow" for those couple months a year, but seeing Tyler throw himself into something he enjoys and is good at, makes it easier. A shout out to the assistant coach Eddie (below) he's a huge help, and we have grown close to him and his family, and are glad we have them as friends.
The cake ... and Eddie
MENU:
Ribs - OH MY GOODNESS YUMMY.
Mac & Cheese - I guess that's what you're supposed to serve with ribs. who knew.
Mashed Potatoes - Tyler made ... ever had them? BEST EVER, literally.
Japanese Chicken Salad - Made by yours truly.
Rolls, soda, water and cake. Costco cake ... yum.
