Compete!

Of course, our Olympics party was just for fun.  However, this world would be a little boring if there was no competitive drive.

Here's a little trash talking J and E did before the party even started.

My dad, our unofficial M.C. of the Olympics, was sure to remind everyone that this was just about having fun but followed it up with a "but losing sucks" comment.  I wonder where we get our competitive spirit?

Thanks again to Ashley for sharing some photos of our pool events.

highlight of the pool events!

Awesome caps!

More synchronized swimming...

The coin game...Steve threw in a large cup of change and the team to collect the right amount first won.  This got a little rough, but Team B.N. came up with the winning amount.

This swimming thing is a lot of work...

Pool events wouldn't be complete without races, relays, and breath-holding competitions.

We finished the night off with more food and a Pitch tournament. 

Opening day = A giant success!
