Idaho Chess Championship of 2011

Last Saturday through Monday was the Idaho Chess Championship of 2011 which was held in Twin Falls! Caleb and his chess buddy Caleb Kircher both went to the event with good attitudes. They had 6 total games throughout all three day. (two each day) Each game had a time control of 2 hours aside and after 30 moves, both players would receive 1 more hour. That means that each game could go on for up to 6 hours, but most of them only went to 4-5 hours.

Caleb got Overall Champion with 5 out of 6 points! He is now the Idaho Sate Champion of Idaho for 2011!

We had a very good Christmas this year! We read the Christmas story out of Luke and talked about it before opening presents. We had a full Christmas dinner with Turkey, stuffing, seven layer salad, potatoes, green beans, and gravy! Here are some pictures of our Christmas!
