Kicked off the weekend with Super Games<\/a> on Friday at the boys school.\u00a0 Probably the favorite day of the year, it’s like field day when I was kid only much much cooler.\u00a0 A few months ago each class did a tie-dye t-shirt in art class.\u00a0 Each class picks a different color and they wear them the day of Super Games.\u00a0 Easy for the teachers to keep track of their students as they move through each game.<\/p>\n

\"Super<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Super<\/a><\/p>\n

The kids play hard all day long and come home exhausted.\u00a0 And some times missing their shoes.<\/p>\n

\"Boys\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Austin and a couple of his buddies.<\/p>\n

I got there around noon.\u00a0 Austin’s class was doing a water game where they had to fill a huge garbage can up with water but the can was filled with holes and they had to cover as many of the holes that they could.\u00a0 Whichever team could keep the most water in won.<\/p>\n

\"Super<\/a><\/p>\n

One of the dads sprayed the runner with a fire hose as they tried to fill it up and run back.<\/p>\n

Blake’s class was at the putt-putt station<\/p>\n

\"Super<\/a><\/p>\n

All Cole wanted to do was the big blow up stuff.\u00a0 This one was his favorite<\/p>\n

\"Super<\/a><\/p>\n

After Super Games we packed it up and headed down to the farm for a little early birthday celebration that\u00a0 started with a Spongebob pinata.<\/p>\n

\"spongebob\"<\/a> \"Spongebob\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"spongebob\"<\/a> \"spongebob\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Austin whacked it so hard his legs came off<\/p>\n

\"spongebob<\/a><\/p>\n

You can see Astro in the background protesting the Spongebob no-legs.\u00a0 He seemed to think that something was very wrong about them beating this innocent yellow guy.<\/p>\n

The boys each had a little mini cake.<\/p>\n

\"4\"<\/a><\/p>\n

My mom claims that is the face that I always made- I think she made that up.<\/p>\n

Took a picture of my parents by the biggest tree ever, back by the barn<\/p>\n

\"parents\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The boys tried to talk to the swans<\/p>\n

\"swans\"<\/a><\/p>\n

My boys in the barn<\/p>\n

\"boys\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The first zucchini of the summer<\/p>\n

\"garden\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"garden\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And not to be out-done<\/p>\n

The 2nd zucchini of the summer- not quite ready to be picked but that’s the way it goes.<\/p>\n

\"garden\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And so that wraps up the weekend around here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
