track n field part 2

today was ben's track n field day

it was a PERFECT day outside!
an afternoon jam packed with ...
a soccer kick ...
a long run ...
a bean bag throw ...
an egg race ...



a gunny sack race ...
(where i took part in the 'mom race' and i think i may have found my hidden talent! and ...ya ... i know ... nice hair. stupid hairband.)



the long jump ...
an obstacle course ...
and just having fun outside.

not sure if i've mentioned ... but his class has 16 boys and 5 girls.
so you can imagine there is a WHOLE lot of energy ...
and a WHOLE lot of fun to be had when it comes to outdoor events!



they finished the day off with a tug of war against the other kindergarten classes ...

and then a final tug of war against some of their parents!!
(can i just say ... it is not very easy to let the kids win! it seemed as though they ended up falling all over each other and basically giving up before we could even give them control of the rope!)



nice job, ben!
you rocked!
