Monster Wrestling

We seem to have a new sport here in our household:  Monster Wrestling.  

Here's dad giving a pep talk the day before the match:

 And on the morning of the match we have our game face on:

The challengers are introduced:

 and immediately Ann goes straight for the eyes!

 But Cookie Monster holds his own with a full body drape:

 Ann doesn't appear worried by this notion though as she begins to cast Cookie Monster to the side:

 Can't let him go too far though:

 What a grip she has on his fur:

 Cookie fights back valiantly, trying for a different pinning technique:

 The referee is called in to separate the two but Ann's still ready for more:

 She takes charge biting his leg:

 And after a little while (and another referee time out) maneuvers him back into position:

 Going straight for his eyes again:

 Ahh, the look of a champion!

 

A second contender waits in the wings:

 But giraffe wrestling really isn't as much fun:

At the end of the day, all our hard work buys us is a strange new hair do courtesy of dad:

No monsters or giraffes were harmed in the making of this post.  All participants gladly volunteered for the pictures and will do so again soon.

My poor daughter is so going to hate me as a teenager when she see's these, but until then at least I'm having fun!
