Olympic Day

Well, things must be a bit busier now that the boys are out of school, because it seems like i've been trying to finish this post FOREVER...
Anyway, another big event in our town that everyone turns out for is Olympic Day, and this year was double the fun since Josh was in kindergarten and both boys were able to compete. Just take a look at their faces-they illustrate so perfectly their polar opposite personalities when it comes to competition of any kind....

Tug-o-war
Here's Ben-all smiles....


And Josh, taking it a bit more seriously....




And Ben in the 4x100 relay-again smiling for the camera, and often looking to either side of him and behind him to see who's nearby...


And here's Josh's relay race...Check out that determination as he tries to catch up...He was the last leg and wasn't sure where to finish, so instead of coming in third, he kept running his heart out, finished a whole lap around the track, and ended up coming in first for his own 3x100, 1x400 race! We didn't have the heart to tell him....The funny part was that two other kids kept going with him!




And here they are with their GREAT friends.




And here's Miss Grace taking in all the action, though it looks more like she's watching a polo match in her pretty sunhat...:)



Here are the boys after the last day of school, with the banner that was waiting for them when they got off the bus...Summer here we come! :)
