I'm Just a "Pawn"

Calob competed in a local chess tournament on Saturday & while he didn't win it all we're still proud of him. He finished with 3.5 points. He won the first 3 games, had a draw (tie) on the 4th & lost the final game. We aren't exactly sure where he finished overall (they haven't posted the final results) but he did get a medal. Congrats Calob on another great chess tournament!

Before game 4
Playing game 5 Thumbs-up for the medal
Oh yeah, did I forget to mention that the team from his school finished 2nd place overall & got another team trophy (they finished 2nd at the last tournament as well)?!? Way to go team!!!
When we came home from the tournament there was a package waiting on our porch ... Callie's long-awaited Nintendo DS. She's been saving for it for quite some time & just this past week we ordered it online. It's pink ... eek! She's loving it though!!!

Way to go Calob for bringing home the blingity bling bling. And props to Callie on saving her money to buy herself something REALLY special! That takes a lot of self-discipline and restraint and I'm really proud of her for doing it. I know I can't! LOL

Way to go Calob! You rock!

And how in the world did Callie have the discipline to save up that much money? Way to go Callie for doing that!
