May 25, Fun Day (aka field day)

Raine playing hyper-ball. Right after I took this photo a big boy came and stole the ball off her cone and she chased him down and pulled his flag. She is a serious defender!

Carter’s class went undefeated in the tug-o-war among the four 1st grade classes. (It was all thanks to those girls up front, they were fierce!) Here they are doing their class cheer.

I skipped work for a few hours so that I could hang out with them.

June 1, Start of Summer party
The last day of school, the PTA has a big party with an inflatable water slide, bounce house, dunk tank, and other games. They also grill hamburgers and have a DJ playing all their favorite elementary school dance tunes! I didn’t take many photos but here is Raine waiting to be dunked…

…and Carter playing baseball on one of the inflatable games.
