Special Olympics

Doing our warm-ups


The gang

She is so attached to her teacher! She didn't want me only Ms. Edwards.

The look

Playing w/ the parachute was her favorite activity!








Receiving her medal


Driving her race car

Hugging Sonic the Tot


It was a wonderful day for Emma's school to compete at the Special Olympics. Emma couldn't do any of the major events because of the age limit, but they did have lots of activities set up for the younger kids to do. She did an awesome job and was very excited to receive her medal. The most hilarious part was watching her "buddy" chase her around all morning, which gave Mommy a nice little break. They ended the day w/ a hot dog and chips lunch, then the kids returned to school. After they return, it is tradition for all of the other classes to line the halls, while they parade through w/ their medals, and everybody cheers for them! How very sweet of the school to do that for them!!!
