Field Day 2009












Yesterday was field day at the kids school. Lots of fun, lots of water and lots of laughter filled the air on this beautiful day. I tried to hang out with each child equal amounts of time, but somehow I feel like I didn't do such a good job at that. Joe was also there. He was doing his watch dog duties, helping run events, set and take down, but the best thing was watching him and the other watch dog dads play water balloon volleyball with the administration of the school. Those dad's knew how to bounce a water balloon with the sheet and send it soring into the sky, while screaming children waited to see where the balloon would fall and who would get wet. Long gone are the days of three legged races and winners blue ribbons, but fun was had by all. Owen's favorite was the water slide and when daddy soaked him with the bucket of cold water. Katelyn's favorite was when she soaked her teacher with a cup of ice cold water. How cool are teachers these days, they want to play just as much as the kids do, when I was a kid, my teachers would have never done something like jumping in line and sliding down the water slide like Katelyn's teacher did. I can't tell you how much we just love our school and our teachers. God has truly blessed us this year. Just four more days remain...Looking forward to summer but oh how we will miss Mrs. Meador and Mrs. Welch.
