Field Day

Yesterday was Field Day! And while it was a little hot, you could not have asked for better weather (in past years, its had to be reschedule several times OR last year, it was so hot, everybody was dropping like flies!).

Korri with Mrs. Erger

Finn with Mrs. Halverson

Jim was able to block off the afternoon and come along so we divided and conquered. The nice thing about this year was the Mac was old enough to go along and participate, which was a lot of fun to see (thanks to Mrs. Erger and Mrs. Halverson for letting him!). Have I mentioned lately how we hit the jackpot for teachers this year?!?!

I started out with Korri's group. Here are some of her activities: water balloon toss (everybody's favorite!), Comet rocket, shoe kick, sprints, limbo and tug-o-war (and one tuckered out kiddo!).

Then we happened to find Finn's class, so we switched groups (and Mac went with me for a while). Here are some of Finn (and Mac's) activities: three-legged race (with daddy!), sprints, shoe kick, Comet rockets, egg race and bocce ball (and one tired boy!).

I didn't get pictures of the three-legged race, potato sack race, or the chicken race (because I missed those for both kiddos!). I had a blast, even if it was hot. I made sure the kiddos had sunscreen on, but not me. Oops! Looking forward to next year already! And then the following year we'll have two in elementary and one in middle school (and they do them the same day). Maybe Ramma will need to come!

And look who we found...REAGAN!!! She and Mac did the egg race together.
