State Bound!

Matthew had his first Odyssey of the Mind Regional Tournament today.  M dropped him off at the Carroll High School early yesterday morning. He was there the whole day for the competition and to watch other teams compete.

I didn't see his long term competition because I had to take Mark to his soccer game, but M and his grandparents were there for support.

His team did great! They got first place and will be heading to Houston in April to compete in the State Tournament.

We are so proud of Matthew! He was so excited about the win. It's really rare that he gets this excited about anything and he was so proud of himself-which is the most important thing.

There was a lot of downtime so the boys had to find ways to entertain themselves.

Waiting for the award ceremony to start.

The team with Coach Anne who has the patience of an angel.

First place! Next stop - Houston!

 A silly picture, of course...

So proud of this little man!
