Friday was Field Day at Gabe's school! Grady and I had been guilted in to volunteering to help out, but I have to admit we really had a great time! The Picnic Point field day is not like anything we participated in....they only have a couple of races the rest are fun activities....not so much a competition of athletic ability, but more a day of fun! I would have appreciated a field day like this when I was a kid....I am anything but athletic! The station I manned was called Tire Croquet! Basically it was a life-size game of croquet....the loops that the ball would usually go through were big enough for a kid to fit in and instead of a ball the kids rolled a tire!! This was a hoot to watch--most of the kids thought it looked easy and then it would be their turn and the first thing they all said was," This is a lot harder than it looks!" Gabe finally made his way over to my station right before the end---he had ran the marathon, 50 meter dash, but he had spent most of his time in the homerun derby, soccer shoot, and shoe toss! Grady also had a good time...he helped me line kids up, but he mainly flirted with the older girls---he also has a friend from preschool whose sisters go to picnic point, so they were able to hang out a little bit as well! We had so much fun that next year they won't even have to guilt me into volunteering!
