CHEC Field Day

Now that Anna Kate is five, and about to officially start kindergarten in the fall, we have joined our local homeschool association, CHEC. We've joined in on some co-op classes - Astronomy and math drills for Anna Kate, and US Geography song drills for both Anna Kate and Caroline. They had a great time and are looking forward to starting back in the fall.

CHEC just had their end-of-the-year Field Day this week and it was our first time participating. The girls were so excited! In fact, Anna Kate called us up to her room at midnight the night before to say that she was so excited she couldn't sleep!

Here they are all ready to go!

Some favorite events of the day:

Sack Races






Crab Walk





Softball throw



50 yard dash


Lined up for the Water Balloon toss!

Eleanor enjoyed being pulled around the wagon and running all over the place!

Oh, and Anna Kate just had to get her face painted by some of the high schoolers. Of course she chose a pink glittery butterfly!



Such a fun (and very hot!) day!
