Our first event was

 cycling

Competitors raced (that term is used loosely here) down the track on their wheels of choice.

As they made their way down the track they were cheered on by family members.

Our competitors were greeted by hugs and cheers as the crossed the finish line.

In this event their may or may not have been some cheating involved.

You be the judge.

Do they get any cuter than this?

Tristen thought it looked like so much fun that he took this cycle out for a spin.

Our next event was the 

4 X 400 relay race.

Fans watched as the competitors prepared for the race.

On your Mark, Get Set, GO!!!

Such focus and determination!

After the race we moved to the

shot - put event

That ball is much heavier than it looks!

Our last venue at the PG school field was the 

long jump

While the contestants prepared for the event.

Family gathered around to enjoy the competition.

Some even took this break as a chance to warm up

 for their events.

but soon the long jump was under way

Patriot is amazed by Mia's long jump!

he doesn't quiet know what to think about Spencer's speedo?

 We then moved to the Rockwell Pavilion

to enjoy some lunch,

and some sleep,

good company,

 and some wholesome "I can do it better than you can" competitions.

 The next event of the day was

While we were here we decided to take some family photos

Ashton practiced her cheetah run

and these two boys had some more lunch

 next on the olympic events docket was 

swimming

First up were the women swimmers.

It was a photo finish!

 Next up were the men.

Check out what all of the little girls think of Nick's attire.

Again it was a close race!

But Nick Took the win on this round.

 The final match was held between the men and women.

While it was a close race John took the lead and won.

After the race our speedo friends posed for a picture.

Check out the muscles on these guys!!

Thank you speedo brothers for providing us with lots of laughs.

It was nice to still see smiling faces through each of the matches.
