5th Grade Kick-Ball Game

At Mad's school they always have a kickball game at the end of the field day. Teachers vs. the 5th graders. I've gone most years and I always have fun watching but this year Madison participated and it was even more fun to cheer her and her friends on. Go 5th graders!!!

Those teachers were ruthless, I tell ya', they definitely made the 5th graders work for it. I was scared for Madison but she did a great job. She got a double and made it all the way home! The teachers won 10-5 but Madison was happy she earned her team a point!

Check out that stance!
Running to 2nd base.
She had just gotten done punking Mr. Sullivan and I tried to capture it but I was too late. That girl is SASSY!
Madison's BFF, Emma. She's got skillz also!

Karley counting her money for the snack stand. What's a ball game without a great snack stand!?!

Grandma and Mr. griffin(the P.E. teacher) did a great job with field day! Super fun as always!!!

Good job, big Sis. !!!
I know these girls are going to miss each other like crazy next year when Madison goes to middle school!

I know I've said this before, but I just cannot get over how much she look like you. Mini-Leah. Right down to the ankles. And probably toes, but I couldn't see those in the pictures.

Great pictures Leah!! Very fun day and this Field Day was even more fun with all of you guys there. Madison did a great job. When you think about it, there weren't that many 5th graders that even scored!!

Oh, the good old kick-ball days. That's a cute idea for the school to do every year. Although it does seem a little mean that the teachers beat them by so much. ;) What long, lean legs that girl has!

Marylin said...
