Robin Hood - AKA Andrew



Andrew participated in the MN regional archery tournament in Stillwater today.

He did really well. There were several hundred archers and it was a very well run day.

For those not familiar with how an archery tourney works. 3 rounds (5 arrows) at 10 meters, and 3 rounds (5 arrows) at 15 meters. Scoring is the total of all arrow (10 is bullseye). He shot a 202 - which we think is terrific. Out of 150 total points @ 10 meters - he shot 133. Pretty amazing for us - we are proud of him!

We celebrated by eating @ McDonalds for lunch - it was a fun day. We had prepared a few chants - but when we got there - we realized chanting was not really appropriate. It was kind of like a golf gallery. Anyway - our favorite was: "Andrew, Andrew shoot it straight, if you don't you'll never get a date"

Set your clocks ahead anyone who is reading this on Saturday night.
