Track and Field

Last day of school!!! We are so ready for summer and what a great way to end the school year-track and field day! For the first time they started the day with a color run. The kids loved it. This was Samuel's first year to participate and Jakob's last year at track and field so it was another bittersweet day. 
Jakob appeared on the news for the color run! They wanted to interview him but he chose not to so they used a shot of him running and getting dye thrown on him.
After the color run the field events started. Jakob won the 200 and 50 yard dash. He placed 2nd in the 100. He didn't do too well at hula hoop. 
Jacey did great at softball throw and hula hoop. She placed second in the 50 and 100 yard dash. 
Samuel also did well at the events. He is probably my most competitive which is scary because Jakob is extreme. He won the 50, 100 and 200. He was very frustrated because he couldn't hula hoop the longest.
 The day was ended by playing in the sprinklers.  It is safe the say the kids had a blast and were worn out by noon. 
Now we get to head to our end of school swim party!
