field day

Katie and Ryan had field day on Friday. The whole school walked across the street and through the field to the High School track field. The high school band and spirit team were there with loud music and cheers for the kids and high school students coordinated all the games at each station.

Every grade had different color shirts and made class banners. It was well planned and all my kids had a lot of fun.
Ryan and his buddy Steven getting the giggles on the 3 legged race... they did great the whole way and back only to fall right before the finish line... but they still won!
This pizza box game was a hit. The first person had to carry one box, the second person two boxes etc. The last couple people were pretty funny to watch.
Katie trying to sit on and pop a balloon... but she just kept bouncing off. Her friend and teacher finally had to give her a hand.
And what field day would be complete without a parachute?
Katie thought the best best part about field day was showing off her sisters. All of Katie's friends call Emily and Megan 'Katie 1' and 'Katie 2'.
I carried Luke around on my back but when I did put him down Megan occupied his attention, patted him on the head, gave him tight hugs and squished his cheeks. What a helpful girl.


The one thing I didn't get a picture of was when Megan wandered over to the main table, pushed the button on the microphone and said, "HI!" through the speakers all over the field. That's my little rascal.
