The BBQ was a lot of fun, though. Holly participated in a running race with other 3 and 4 year old girls (they had races for each gender in heats). All of the kids got a ribbon (first, second, third or participant) - Holly was soooo excited about getting a ribbon, she thought she'd won the race! After the race, the kids also got to pick prizes from a table - Holly chose a Strawberry Shortcake DVD.
Holly and Daddy then participated in the "Girls & Dads vs Boys & Moms" tug-of-war. Girls and Dads won. . . but not that easily, in fact it looked kind of iffy for a few seconds!
We also took the water guns we picked up at the Dollar Store. They are pretty good shooters and Holly had a lot of fun getting us wet. Some of her little friends tried them and they all loved getting their parents wet, too.
After playing in the playground with Daddy, having the complimentary hot dog (or hamburger) lunch, eating snow cones, running in a race, playing with the water guns, and eating ice cream sandwiches provided to us, Holly and Dad then took a dip in the pool - where do kids get all that energy?! (And in the heat, no less!)
