Iowa Deer Classic Results

Well they finally posted the results for the archery contest on-line so I thought I'd share.

Brandon got 22nd out of 105. He shot a 283 / 5 (not sure what that means) but I though he did well.

Chase got 17th out of 22. He shot a 196 / . I was very proud of him. He was one of the only (if not the only) kids shooting without a release and this was his first competition.

He wasn't very thrilled with his placing until I told him he beat dad.

All I want for Christmas..................

Is my two front teeth!


Unfortunately this song now rings true for Chase.

Last Sunday after returning from drill practice Chase and his cousins decided to play ball. Pappa Bob had taken away all of the bats so he decided to use an old banister railing instead. Of course it would have taken too much time for him to take off his glove so he propped the railing in the glove.

That’s when I got the call to come to the house. As Chase swung the banister it popped out of the glove and into his mouth. Needless to say I wasn’t a very sympathetic mother when I learned how this all happened.

Brady, Mason and I spent some time looking for his teeth. We found his baby tooth and part of his permanent tooth but not all of it as it had been broken in more then one piece.

The front tooth was a permanent tooth. The one next to it was a baby tooth.

We went to the dentist the following day and they put some paint on the tooth to keep the exposed nerve from bothering Chase until the swelling goes down. In about 3 weeks we go back to see if the tooth has grown out enough for them to try to put a cap on it.
