Katie's field day

Today was Katie's field day, and it was a perfect day - 80 and beautiful! First the second graders went to the dance tent and danced to a lot of new and old songs. (Jessi was singing YMCA all day/night long!)





Then the second graders went down to "the valley" to play games like tug of war:

...golf ball in spoon race...

...water in spoon race...

...and water-in-cup-on-top-of-hat race!


Then the second graders came up to the blacktop for free time and enjoyed free ice cream and cotton candy. Siblings got to partake, as well. Here are the girls with Megan's BFF Abby (Abby is Molly's little sister, Molly is Katie's BFF).

After the treats, they got lots of time to play on inflatable bouncy houses and an obstacle course:

And tattoos!

After all of the activities, the kids went around to the parking lot on the other side of the school to watch a cool BMX bike show. It was awesome!

The finale was doing jumps over a car!

All of the kids swarmed the bikers after the show, and I got a shot of Katie with Adam, one of the best bikers. (during the exhibition the kids kept chanting Adam, Adam, Adam to see him do cool tricks)

It was a fun afternoon! I got to take Katie out of school a little early, so we stopped at 7-11 for a big old slurpee. Then she had her weekly allergy shots, then dinner at home, then we walked to DQ and back. (Apparently we can't get enough fresh air or frozen treats in a day!!) :P The bathtub was extra grimy tonight, and the girls are all sound asleep. What a great day!
