Track and Field Day 2017

Today is Track and Field Day!

I always love this day.  It's fun to watch the girls have fun with their friends.  It's typically the first nice day of the season that I get to spend the full day outside.  There are so many parents, grandparents, siblings, middle school and high school volunteers.  I love how the whole community seems to come together to support these kids.

They cheer each other on and encourage each other all day.

 

Hailey's class ate lunch first, in their classroom, so I took a break from the sun and joined them on the carpet.   After this we will head back outside for more events.

This year the 3rd grade classes took part in the tug of war event.  That was so fun to watch.  It was class against class.  They were all so into it and seemed to have so much fun.  It got real loud as each class would cheer for each other and once it was down to the last two classrooms, you could hardly hear yourself think because they were all cheering and yelling so loud.

 



One thing I have loved is that both Hannah and Hailey have friends from Kindergarten that they are still friends with.  Most of these girls they haven't had again in their class but that hasn't mattered at all.  They still all hang out at recess and I can always find them together on days like today.
