Field Day

Friday was officially the last day of school for Benjamin. They had a Field Day at school. Now, just because they don't have a field doesn't mean that they can't have field day.... The kids had a great time together. It was nice for them to leave on such a high note. Here are some pics from that.
Sidewalk chalk time. They got to write on the side of the building, the fence, the tables, etc. Benjamin's teacher wrote "Kindergarten Rocks" on the fence and the whole class wrote their names around it. Since Benjamin's name has an obscene amount of letters in it and he is trying to avoid Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, he just wrote his initials.
Have you ever tried to play musical chairs with 11 kindergarteners? No? Smart!!

There was a sports time in the schedule. Benjamin was not interested in soccer, bowling, horseshoes, or golf. He loved this giant basketball hoop. Every time you got it in the hoop, you got 100 points! If you missed, you got a free shot.
Then he moved on to the more advanced level...briefly.
Basketball is tiring!!
Mary Shannon agrees!!
There was face painting and tattoos.
And what Texas event is complete without a snoball?
"Mrs. Benjamin's Mom, what colors are our tongues?!?"
Relaxing at lunchtime--the last event of the day.
And this picture isn't from field day, but I forgot to put it in last week. I thought Mom and Dad Bulgrien would like it. It is from their ABC days. This was "U" day. They did an umbrella parade around the courthouse. The newspaper even came out to see it and put the kids in the paper!
