Kiddie Olympics

In the spirit of the 2008 Summer Olympics we had a kiddie olympics right here in our front yard area. We had some friends over and swam and played games. Here are some of the events:

Shotput: throwing the ball as far as we can. Look at Landon and Reese go!

Balance beam: walking along the tape on the ground and jumping the gaps.We had a couple of other events planned, but the kids were having so much fun playing in the water that we just let them be.
Here are some of the mommies watching in the heat. Most of them were pregnant. Thanks for being such troopers!

The rest of the time we played in the water and ate red, white and blue popsicles.

Here are our gold medalists:

That looks like you had a blast. What a cute idea. :-) I love the medals. I guess with that age it's a good thing you kept them all gold. He, he, he.

What a great idea!!! Christie, you are such an amazing mom, I have a lot to learn from you! I have no doubt that the kids loved the whole thing and that the moms appreciated the chance to wear their tots out!

how fun!!!! I am so sad I missed it. I'm sure Jace would've medaled in the "running" event. What a great idea.
