Mother Goose Games

Field trip season came to a close as I took part in Bear Hollow's Mother Goose Games.  I remember going on this field trip with Hank and it was one of the first times I witnessed his competitive nature.  I wasn't sure how much Max would get into it but he didn't disappoint.  He is more like his brother than I thought!


 There were many games to play mostly involving running and jumping.  I have another little athlete on my hands.  Most of the kids had no clue what was going on.  Max on the other hand was in it to win it.

I think these pictures illustrate my point precisely.  He had no problem dragging his teammates along.
 
After the games, one of the moms decided to take a bunch of pictures.  Max was compliant for the first 10 minutes.
 
But it went on about 20 minutes too long and he had enough.  
 
I mean he was pissed to the point of tears.  Poor kid, I mean how many pictures do you people need?

Good thing lunch was the next activity.  That turned his spirits around in a hurry.  
 
Sitting next to Bree also helped.  She quickly became his girlfriend as soon as he heard Hank had a love interest.  Bree is a lucky girl and she doesn't even know it!


All this field trippin' has been exhausting but so worth it.  Between Hank and Max, I've been on 7 field trips this school year.  I have to thank my willing babysitters who made it possible.  Thank you so much mom, Sarah, and Jeri.  I love spending one on one time with my boys.

That class pic with pissed off Max will go down in history! Classic!!!
I loved talking with him about Bree. He was like, "Yeah, I love her. So what?"

You're a good mama, sis. Your boys are lucky lucky.
