Family Fun – Egg Olympics
As a family Naomi and I try and have consistent family fun events with the kids. I found great comfort when someone once told me that these don’t have to be the big, well thought out events we sometimes think we need to plan as parents. Often they aren’t even close to being well thought out. They are however intentional times where we as a family can laugh, play and have fun together. This time round I decided to do a quick round of “Egg Olympics” prior to me leaving for church.
Pre competition prep while the kids still sleep
Kids just waking up
The choosing of the eggs
Choosing which egg will run in the first race
Judah taking his mark
Esther still sleepy but getting ready to race
They're off!
Almost at the finish line
Winner of Heat #1 Esther!
A little less enthusiasm from Judah with a second place finish
Next Heat, egg smash. Egg left standing wins.
Judah's egg starts to explode (wish I had set a faster shutter speed)
A mess is now unavoidable
Oh, oh!
Judah declares himself the winner & incredibly Esther believes him.
Good sportmanship
It was declared a draw.
The spoils of battle go to Jackson
Anyways, a quick snapshot into some “Egg Olympics” at the Herbold household early Friday morning.
