field day

The kids had a field day at school last week.......it was so much fun to watch! Jim and I had to run back and forth between Jayce's tug-of-war and Tyler's relay races. Here is Jayce and his class (well, just the boys) playing tug-of-war... Jayce is behind the little boy in the blue hat.

Unfortunately, Jayce's class lost....but it was still so much fun to watch!




Here is Tyler running the "duck" race. Each child had to wrap one of those silly little duck floats around their waists and run down and around the cone at the end of the field, and then back again. Here, Tyler just got his duck and began his race to the finish. He has the yellow ducky and light blue shirt on.

I can't remember what place his class took on this race..........but it's not about placing....it's about having fun!

Here's part of Tyler's class waiting for the next race....Tyler is one the far left with the light blue shirt on (their class shirts....he's in Mrs. Shepard's Sharks class).

Here's Jayce and one of his classmates running the noodle race. Jayce had to run backwards the entire time! It was hilarious!

In this race Jayce just finished popping his water balloon and was racing back to the finish line. The kids had to run to the end of the field and grab a water balloon out of the cooler and then plop down on the balloon with their butts to pop it. Another hilarious race.....

And to end the day.....a nice shaved ice...yum!
