SO ...
alex and his friends may not go to elementary school
and
they may not have an official field day ...
BUT ...
we didn't let that stop us
today we brought a group of his preschool friends together at the park
so they could have a track n field day OF THEIR OWN!
we decided to get it going with a BANG
and nothing explodes quite like mentos and diet coke
*and when 1 mento just isn't fun enough ...
try 5 :)
we followed it up with a 3 legged race
just have to say that alex and blake ROCKED -
neighborhood olympics here we come!!
a few water relays
using dixie cups and sponges
a sack race
which included a few moms ;)
an egg and spoon relay
with eggs that didn't seem to want to break
even when we tried!
and i SWEAR i did not boil them!
a water balloon toss
and a picnic lunch in the sun
the kids LOVED having their own olympics
and ...
i enjoyed my quiet afternoon because of how worn out alex was :)
a successful day for everyone :)
