Be Fit Your Way in May!!

On my final day of subbing, the elementary students participated in sports activities all afternoon! It was a great way to end the week and we thankfully had beautiful weather! Our PE teacher organized the event and boy, the kids worked hard! Each grade level started out by running 400 meters around the track in front of everyone. Then we split up into grade levels and rotated through the events. The little kindy kids had one event and then they had to go back and run another 400 meters - many of them were dragging, but they were having a great time and they all tried their best!! I was extremely proud of Eens because he didn't choose to come in last like he did last year!! He didn't come in first, but he didn't come in last!!

Here is Eensie doing the ball toss! I think grandpa will probably have to work with him on throwing a ball this summer!

Ellie is our little track star!! I imagine her long legs will serve her well as she grows up!! I don't think she actually won her second race, but she was neck in neck with one of her best friends! Her form is great and I could definitely see her running the 800 meters like her mommy!!

El is in red on the inside lane of the track!! I think I have several pictures of myself at this exact spot on the track taken by my Grandpa Kimler right after the gun went off!!

And Coopie got to participate in the afternoon by playing in the bounce houses!! That was enough organized activity for him, although if they would have allowed him to run the 400, there is no doubt in my mind that he would have given it his all!!
