Derek had his first Field Day at school today! For a kid who loves being active, this was probably his favorite part of the school year. It was supposed to rain today, so I was a little if-y about going to watch with Bryce and Clara, but I'm glad we went. We were only able to stay for a couple events before I needed to leave to get ready for a friend's birthday party later today, but it was so fun to cheer for Derek and watch him compete!
Silly faces!
It's going to be a great day. :)
He was so excited to see us!
These are two sweet little spectators!
"I'm open, I'm open!"
He was hopping and skipping to his heart's content
Get in there, bud!
Derek is a born leader. He likes to direct his team mates. :)
Having fun while he waits in line
Ready... set ...
... GO!
Rounding the cones
Sneaking a peek at the competition as they charge down the homestretch
Tie!
Running is his favorite. :)
We love our silly, sweet Derek!
Sitting "criss-cross applesauce" while he waits to play "Air Raid"
Clara and Bryce were captivated
The kids waited patiently while the coaches finished setting up the game in the background
Derek had dropped his hat so Bryce ran it out to him. He thought it was important for Derek to have his hat on.
Dashing back to the sidelines
Haha! It's kind of creepy to have a pair of eyes staring from the back of his head, lol.
Protecting his base from his neighbors bomb (ball) attacks
Rolling a ball. Good form!
He's ready... but not guarding the back! Another kid took him out from behind a few seconds later.
Clara stood quietly watching the kids play
Sweet siblings!
So much excitement!
My three babies!
A local dermatologist rented/sponsored a shaved ice truck for all the kids.
Day made!
He only took a few bites and his tongue was already smurfed!
