Field Day

Mid May Beacon Christian had their annual field day. The week before the temperatures had been soaring into the 90s and I was a bit nervous about having Mae & Russell outside from 11:00-3:00. Thankfully, it cooled off and was a bit overcast. Perfect field day weather.
Warming up before running the mile. I just love Etta's hair in these pics.
She's been practicing her jumping jacks all year.
Stretching. She was a bit confused about what she was supposed to do . . . 
. . . But from the look on her face I think that she got my lack of flexibility.
Lining up for the mile run. The tall boy in the blue shirt behind the girls is Zach. The girls love him. He helped Mae run her "mile". (Which turned out to be one lap.)
Just love how she mimics the older kids - as if she knows exactly what's going on.
On a side note, today Etta got her medal for walking/running 220.75 miles over the course of the school year. The most of any student in the school - and she's the youngest student there! The principal did walk 709.5 miles though, so he was the big winner. I am so proud of her!
