Saturday, July 5th was the day of the kids' games and the adult horseshoe tournaments. Kate finished last as she meandered her way to the finish line in the foot race. Next though was the sack race, and let me tell you--she hopped her way right into first place by a long shot! I never knew she was such the little hopper! It was so neat how they announced her name over the speakerphone with everyone cheering. She loved it and had me tie her blue ribbon onto her belt loop so everyone could see it for the rest of the day. Hopping was such a smashing success, that she decided to hop in the other races too, which were NOT hopping races! It was so funny to see her hopping along with the stick horse, and then trying to hop with poor Addy tied to her in the 3-legged race, but watch out world 'cuz this girl can HOP!
Jessa made it through the foot race, but just barely before she broke down and it was naptime!
In other hopping news, Chad finished third, and I only include it because I absolutely think this is a great action shot--the way these four guys are lined up is really lucky!
Doug did excellent in the horseshoe tourney, despite suffering with his "tennis elbow". He was beat late in the rounds by the eventual 2nd place winners, and finished in the top 8 individuals! He didn't keep his 2-year trophy streak alive, but he is already practicing for next year!
