A couple of weeks ago the kids had "Field Day" at their school. For those not familiar with field day at PC it is a BIG deal! The kids look forward to it all year, and it is an ALL day extravaganza. They set up tons of activity stations for the kids. Each station is a different activity and they rotate from station to station with their group. Everyone at PC puts in so much for this day to happen and I hope they know how much the kids (and parents) LOVE and appreciate it. They even get a city water truck to come and spray a huge spray so the kids can run and play in it! Makes you want to go back and be a kid all over again doesn't it :)
The weather was beautiful and the kids had a ball. Byran was lucky enough to spend the day with them splishing and splashing in the cold, let me rephrase, super cold water, and I was able to sneak away from work for a couple of hours to join in the fun! I was worried that I would not be able to join in on the fun because they changed the date at the last minute due to the weather, but I work with the best of the best. They covered my classes so I could go over and join in the summer fun!
Cooper and Brylee both had the best time. Not surprising at all, the obstacle course was the favorite for both kids.
They enjoyed running through the sprinklers too!

On a side note, I have to mention that I fell in love with my adorable hubby all over again on field day. I knew when I married him that he was going to be an amazing Dad, but I think with the busy life we lead I sometimes forget or don't really see what a truelly amazing Daddy he is. When I arrived he was pushing Coop and "his girlfriend" on the swings. (OK, so I'm not sure Ellie will agree that she is his girlfriend but for months Coop has been telling us that she is indeed "his girlfriend.") The three of them had the funniest conversations about a gazillion different things, but what made me really smile is that: he never stopped pushing. Every parent knows that feeling when your child is on the swings and you will do anything in the world to draw their attention off the swings and ON to something else, to give your arms a rest, but, more importantly, your ears a rest from the constant "push me higher." Bryan never did, he pushed and pushed until the kids had the great idea of going back to the water.
And later in the day, when we were with Brylee's group I was talking to the teacher and heard lots of giggles and squeals. I looked around to find this:
I have been so blessed with an amazing husband and Daddy for my babies!
