No Field Day today!?!

Well friends, today was supposed to be field day. I organize this event for our homeschooling group every year, at least for the past 5 years (I think), and I ALWAYS have a blast with the kids. Do you remember field day? The 100-yard dash, three-legged race, sack race, crabwalk, wheelbarrow race, and then all of the team relays, like the Shoe Relay, Spoon Zoom, Sponge Relay, Fireman Run, and sometimes even tug-of-war (we've broken at least 2 ropes)!! What fun!! I used to LOVE field day when I was in elementary school, especially since it meant we did not have our regular classes for the day and we did my MOST FAVORITE thing (except for reading and watching Little House on the Prairie on tv), which was PLAY OUTSIDE! I grew up in the country, and every summer, my Momma would chase my sister and me outside until lunchtime. After we ate, she'd chase us outside again. My sister and I wouldn't complain, unless it was hot. Then she might hear a groan out of us, but we usually played in the woods across the creek where it was cooler. Or we went wading in the creek. Or we'd swat dragonflies with sticks (my sister and I both now feel sorta bad about that one). Of course, we'd have to look for ticks that night before our baths, but it wasn't any big deal to us back then. Anyway, back to field day. We won't be able to have our field day today because thunderstorms (including a tornado watch) are rolling in from Alabama, and even if they pass before 2 p.m., when our field day is supposed to start, the ground will be wet and muddy, and the temperature will be a little too cool for us to be getting wet (us because the kids seem to find it amusing to get ME wet, too!). We KNOW how to get wet for our field days. We always end with a huge water gun blowout fight! I hope to have our field day next Thursday, which as of right now has a 0% chance of rain and a high in the 70's. That's more like it!! I'll let you know how things go.
Blessings.
