Sports Day!!!!

Another Sports Day has come and gone and I praise God for

a successful and fun day!

Here are some pictures from the day in no specific order...

The potato race: the goal to pick up the balls one at a time
and put them in your box...

when all your balls are collected you then pick up your
box and run to the finish line.

The sack races...

the kids loved diving over the finish line adding
a dramatic finish:)

my little girls loving their chance to run at sports day.

the 3 legged race

our serious girl sprinters

and our serious guy sprinters

the guy staff race
Kirk doing his best to keep up with the Jamaicans...
in his defense he had a rough start.

I love this picture of my little boys and how Damian and
Richard are so serious and Tajay is just in it for fun!

Here is a picture of the Wheaton team racing and it reminds
me so much of the picture above but this time it looks like
James and Kent have their serious competitive face on and
Ryan is just in it for the fun:)

the start of the relays

girls relay

the girls about to turn the last corner and run the last
stretch to the finish line.


Then there was a little drama... it was an accident....
accidents happen... but there was SO MUCH
disappointment in the end:(
What Happend: All day the Red team and Purple team had gone
back and forth holding first place. After looking at the score
sheets the Red team was informed if you win the race you win
Sports Day.

So the boys got pumped up and ran hard

Red team won the race....

and the Red team celebrated there victory.

That is until the Purple team asked for a recount...
and we found a mistake was made in the points
given for the final races.

We then had to take the victory away from the
Red Team:(
And give it to the rightful winners the
Purple Team.

The purple team then celebrated their victory and
that was the end of sports day 2011.

I was not able to post all the pictures from sports day so if you
want to see more they are on my shutterfly site.
