Today was the first grade's opportunity to participate in Field Day at school. The kids were divided into "teams" for the first half of the day and competed in relay races. The second half of the day consisted of fun & games for everyone.

Her friend Brylyn was on her team
Cooper was a little disappointed that he couldn't participate, so after a little bit of pouting, he played games on my phone
getting instructions about the race
Reagan is always a great cheerleader for her team!
