Labor Day Olympics 2012!

A LONG time ago, when we lived in Canada- we started the Labor Day Olympics.  At first, it was only our family that was involved- but over the years we added neighbor kids and this year we decided to make it a neighborhood competition.  We had SO much fun!

The McBrides were the Crazy Cougars

The Merrills were the Merrill Muscles (anti- McCarrers)

The Bethers were the Water Warriors

Bryson was VERY excited

 and we were the KICK BUTT CARRELLS!

Each family was in charge of one event...

The Marshmallow Toss

The Razor Race

 (LOVE Mike's expression)

AND Mark's

Clipboard Ping Pong

AND the Tug of War

Plus there was the Water Balloon Toss

 And the diving contest

The Bethers are DEFINITELY the most competitive family of the bunch.  So we will say that they won...

Love these ladies.

AND it was Carson's 7th Birthday and we were happy to celebrate it with him!  Long live the Labor Day Olympics!
