The 2020 COUSIN OLYMPICS...

It's been a very long three months, that's for sure. And not just for us -- the adults. The kids haven't had school...or their friends...their usual sports activities. It's been hard on them, too.

On what WOULD HAVE BEEN their last day of school -- Deena invited us to her yard for some old-fashioned  school yard games.
The first order of business was lunch.  Deena had all the makings so the kids could make their own pizzas...
She used pitas as the base -- and the kids LOVED THEM.
Lilly and Warren, along with six of Deena's grands.  Mason, Myla, Oliver, Clayton, Aspen and Dawson.
We picked teams -- and started off with some kick-ball.
Then, some old fashioned school yard games.  Red Rover, Red Rover...Drip, Drip, Drop...
Bocce (which I always have in my trunk)
A Three-Legged Race.
We went inside for a water break...and a game of Bananagrams.
Later on, it was time for an icey/juice break...
The FINALE to our big day of COUSINS OLYMPICS had to be -- of course -- A WATER FIGHT
Deena had these wonderful water balloons -- that attach to a hose, then fill with water, and when they fall off the end of the straws, they are closed...
The kids never had a chance....
