This morning I had Jacob and Caleb put together an Olympic activity.  It was fun!  We had a sprinting race.  A biking time trial.  A biking road race (around the cul-de-sac and back).  A javelin throw.  A wall (fence) climb.  A stunt competition (on the trampoline).  And a double-dunk competition (inside).

Jacob won gold in most events, except in the biking road race, where he gave Caleb a 10-second head start.  And they crossed the finish line with Caleb a wheel ahead.  Caleb was so proud (deservedly – I've never seen him ride so fast), and Jacob was so gracious in defeat.  I was very proud of him for that…because I knew how hard it was for him!  In stunts and dunking they legitimately tied, I'm happy to report.  We did have some issues with spectators wanting to get in the games – so we had to call SECURITY!  Other than that, it was a successful event.

There he goes…one minute he's cheering them on, the next he's insisting on participating…
