Jack's school has a father-daughter dance and a mother-son sports night (formerly mother-son dance, but trying something new, due to low turn-out). It was our first time attending and Jack and I had a GREAT time. 10 different sporting events, mother/son teams organized into larger color teams...very well organized and allowed us to meet mothers and sons of different ages as well. We came home super tired after 2 1/2 hours of fun Friday night! :-) It was the perfect night for the event...it had been an 80 degree day - but cooled way down once the sun disappeared behind the mountains.
The funniest part of the whole night and probably a lesson the organizer will never forget...after 30 minutes...the sprinklers came on and every 10 minutes was going to move to a new section of the outdoor area we were playing in. the organizers were scrambling to find out how to turn them off. The first 20 minutes were fine - no activities there...but the next section doused our friends on the hippity-hoppity balls and sack races! The screams were hysterical - especially since we were a dry distance away! hehe I bet next year, making sure the sprinklers are turned off will be the first thing on her to-do list!
