Rex/Johnson Annual Olympic Events

The Rex boys have been talking about holding an Olympic competition amongst Dale, Matt, JD, Jimmy and Brett for quite awhile. And what better day to do it then a thunderstorm day that hails on us. It was quite the adventure. After the storm past the day was very beatiful. I was very impressed with the mens sportsmanship. They are all competitve and head strong so to say there wasn't any fighting or bickering is quite the accomplish. Thank you family for the pure entertainment. I really can't wait for the next Rex/Johson Annual Olympics.

Here is James and I hiding from the hail.
We thought it was over a few times but whenever it started we headed for our shelter.I told Lincoln many of times not to go on the bleachers because he will slip and fall from the wetness of the rain. Well, in this picture Lincoln was crying because he didn't listen and did the splits and had bruises in his inner thighs. Hope he learned that mothers know best. I paid Avery a couple dollars to run around with James while I enjoyed the Olympics. It was the best couple of bucks I ever spent. He was happy and I was happy I didn't have to chase him all over. James adores his cousin Avery and loves to play with her because she caters to his every need. The baseball field that they used had this sign on it.
