Spring Fling

Wow!  There was a lot of fun had at Spring Fling at the kids school today! But, don't let these sunny pics fool you!  It was a beautiful day FREEZING and super windy!  It had been warm all week...and then this front blew in last night!  Crazy weather!  (Hudson said he thought the ground hog changed his mind!  Ha!) The school principal and dads who volunteered for a 45 minute shift in the dunking booth were hard core!  And smart to wear wet suits...but you could tell they were freezing! The kids enjoyed the dunking booth SO much! It was definitely one of the highlights!




  The grades moved from station to station.  I tracked with Lawson and Robbie tracked with Hudson.  There was the dunking booth, relay games, Arkansas Game and Fish brought out some fish and animal skins and talked about animals, an African drummer who brought real African drums and taught the kids different beats on them, the Zoo brought a few creatures, bounce houses, a magician, sidewalk chalk, singing silly songs with a group from the High School drama team, popsicles and popcorn!  Whew!  It was a lot fun!












 











Thanks to everyone who worked hard to pull this day off!  I'm sure there are about 500 kiddos who slept well afterwards and are looking forward to next year's Spring Fling!  Maybe with warmer weather!  (On the bright side...we weren't hot and it wasn't raining!)
