Field Day 2014

Ella Catherine's field day was today. Unfortunately, because Matt and I took the day off the day before for Carter's birthday neither of us could go to her field day.  Luckily, my good friend Chasity took some pictures for me.  Unlike when I was a kid, the events at her field day are all class related.  No individual ribbons or prizes.  Each first grade class competes against the other first grade classes. Since we were not there, this is Ella Catherine's recollection of the events.  Her first grade class won third place in the bat relay race, third place in the sponge relay, second place in basketball, second place in ball/cone relay and first place in the bean bag toss.  For the bean bag toss it was a tie after all the kids went.  To break the tie, the teachers had 1 turn to throw the bean bag.  Ella Catherine's teacher threw the bean bag and hit the 10 point mark.  The other teacher threw the bean bag and got no points.  Her team won!!!
