field day 2010

today was hayden's field day at school. it was a beautiful sunny day with a nice breeze, so it was just perfect to be outside for most of the afternoon!
mom came over to watch talan and london and i headed over to hayden's school to help out. there were about 9 different stations and the kids had 20 minutes at each one. they all seemed to have a great time, but it sure tired them all out!
as always, the favorite was probably the relay bounce house. and the popsicles, of course!
i just can't believe this is already the end of hayden's 1st grade year and his last here at macgowan elementary!


filling up a bucket with a soaked sponge relay. hayden and his team (on the right) won:


tug of war. the girls won the first game (their assistant teacher helped) and the boys won the 2nd:


the sack race that seemed to go on for hours:

crab soccer. someone thought it was a good idea to use the entire soccer field for this. most of the kids dropped out pretty quickly:
this game of volleyball was mad chaos what with the wind blowing the balls all around and children fighting over who's turn it was to hit it over the net:
showing off his muscles while waiting in line for the bounce house relay:

i was just planning on taking a picture of hayden and a couple of his friends that were next to him and the next thing i knew, his whole class ran over to have their picture taken. i think it turned out great...they seated themselves and everything:
hayden showing off his mad hula hoop skills:
monkey bars:


hayden made it all the way across this set which apparently he had never done before:
