Let the Games Begin

Last Friday, 8-8-08, we held an Olympic Party before opening ceremonies. We invited 4 other families over and ate Chinese food, had a torch relay, some olympic events, and then watched opening ceremonies as long as our kids would last.



Here's Landon handing off the torch to Lizzie.


Theses are all the torch runners. It was really cute to see them.


Here's a water relay to see who can get the most water transfered from one bucket to another in 30 seconds.


Wheel barrel races......we tied.

This is after the water balloon toss.


Before we went inside we gave all the kids glow sticks which were a hit.


And, here are our medalists!

Hope everyone is having fun watching the Olympics. Go USA!!!

What a fun idea to host an olympic party! You'll have to do it every other year now. It would make a fun tradition. Go USA!!
