I LOVE FIELD DAY!

I wonder if it's because of my fond memories from elementary school, or just my love of outdoor fun, but Field Day is one of my favorite days of the year. I love watching the kids race in fun relays and cheering them on. I love being with the other parents/teachers/ and kids helping out wherever I can, and not worrying about grades or homework, but just enjoying some good, clean fun!! It's a BLAST!! Jaron and Emma had a lot of fun this year too. Jaron and Emma both got soaked and the teachers got into it too. So fun! We, as a PTO handed out otter pops to all the kids, but I have to admit that following the kids around was the most fun!!

Jaron: 5th grade White Team! (came in 2nd place)











Emma: 1st Grade Blue Team! (came in 4th place)









If you look close at this bottom one a couple of 5th graders come around Emma with cups of water and then drench her. it's pretty funny.. I just wish I got a better angle.

So fun! I freakin' loved Field Day growing up... I'll never forget winning the bubble gum bubble blowing contest in first grade. Emma is such a good sport after getting drenched by the older kids... I probably would have cried.

Field Day is the best! I have such fond memories of field day. One year I was sick and I refused to stay home and miss out.
