Powerlifting season

Meet 1 was in Bosqueville and Teague placed 2nd. He had personal bests in all three categories and the boys team placed 3rd overall. Not too bad for their first meet!

Meet 2 was in Rose Bud Lott and was over D-Now weekend so we couldn’t go watch. Teague walked away with 1st place and the team got 2nd. They just keep getting better and better! 

Meet 3 was in Meridian. Teague lifted over 1300 lbs so that was exciting! If he can lift that again at regionals that will automatically get him to state! Teague has started really helping and looking out for the underclassmen so it’s neat to see him lead well!

Regionals was a huge success! Teague lifted very well and placed 1st and is moving on to State! He attempted to break the deadlift record, but the bar slipped out of his hands leaving his fingers ripped up. Other than that, he had a great meet and he was happy with his performance. 

State was amazing! The news came out to interview them at the send off and that paper even did a write up. Teague was right there neck and neck for a 5th place medal the whole meet and it came down to the last lift and he got it!! 5th in the State! So impressive! The whole experience was fun for them and left them ready to get started on going further next year. When they returned, the school board recognized them for their state qualification. Teague’s hard work and self discipline is something to be admired! 

Spring Break

Our spring break didn’t match up with Troy’s spring break so that was not good, but we made the most of it.  Teague and I were sick for the first part of our spring break and then the latter part was spent at powerlifting and track. Troy came into town the weekend before we went back to school so he was able to attend a track meet. During the week Troy was off he was able to work to make some money, cook us dinner one night, and spend some time with his friends and Taryn. The weekend before he left we had a pickleball tournament with dinner and dessert that was really fun. It was a nice couple of weeks of spring break activities! 

Prom

Teague’s first Prom! He and the guys from D-Now cooked up a plan to ask all the girls to prom. Some as friends and some as significant others. They all had great ideas and it was neat to see how their posters all turned out. Teague asked Haleigh using her favorite drink.

Prom was a bit chilly and windy, since they chose February rather than April or May, but at least the sun was out! We started with pictures at Vintage Oaks, then the party bus took them for more pictures downtown, dinner at Casa de Brazil and then to prom. Teague said they had a great time dancing and gambling although he walked away with no winnings. After prom they watched a movie at Tavyn’s house and called it a night around 2am.
