As a family we love sports day. Its a fun afternoon for all the family, many of us mums have younger siblings and we all get together with blankets, picnics and bubbles !!!! Most of the younger kids know each other form pre school anyway and we all take it turns to be the sensible grown up while the dads cheer words of encouragement armed with video camera and cameras or in my case me and my camera, lol.
Izzy loves sports day and is a very sporty child, and i may add a tad competitive. She was limbering up this morning wearing her team colours and sporting my lucky cap!! And it worked, she got a place in all 12 races, not that we are competitive, lol. No in all honesty at this age it is a fun afternoon for the children, everyone gets a ticket with either a number or a smiley face. at the end, before presentation they are all given an ice cream.
I cannot believe that next year Peter and I will be there cheering both our girls on as it will be Lilly's first sports day and Izzy's last non competitive sports day. they do grow up so quick don't they.
I will leave you with a few photos from this afternoon.

Just recently found your blog.. always looking for other UK scrappers.. although I'm a predominantly digital scrapbooker and designer. Anyway, re: sport's day - reading about your day brought back great memories - my kids are now in their early 20's. I loved their sports days. I'm sure you will, but treasure these days with your girls... they grow up all too soon.!
Love your sports day pics, I haven't uploaded my photos of Jacks sports day yet. I have a brilliant pic of him cheating at the egg and spoon LOL.
Hi Anna, What gorgeous pictures of sports day. I have a few years to go before my son is ready for that (he is 14 weeks old!). I have finally got a blog so can now leave comments on your blog. I have been following your news with interest since 'the lounge' closed and it is good to see you and your family going from strength to strength. My blog is at www.carocrafts.blogspot.com. Feel free to check it out. Love Caro
