track n field

friday was our track n field day

rain was in the forecast
and i was secretly hoping for it
as we had a surprise party in WI to get to
and i felt terrible pulling the boys out early ...
BUT ...
it only drizzled
and the morning of track n field day went on

the hurdles, the 1 min jump rope, the football toss, the 50m dash
tug of war ...



the obstacle course, the target throw, the 100m dash,
more tug of war

both boys had a full schedule of events that lasted them through the morning
and THEN ...
as if God knew EXACTLY how long it takes us to get to WI ...
the skies opened and the rain POURED
AND
the afternoon events got cancelled!

it was PERFECT!

of course i feel a little bad for the teachers that have to reset everything
for the 2nd half of events which will be made up this thursday
BUT ...
the fact that we don't miss any of it
AND
were still able to yell SURPRISE to my mom
made my day absolutely WONDERFUL!
