Regatta Fun

In keeping with the Olympic spirit we all raced in the adult swim events. Here is Chris getting ready to swim.
Minnow races are a highlight of Olympic events. You pick a minnow and the gates open as in a horse race. Kiefer's minnow immediately swam to the finish line for a first place ribbon.
Canoe races demand some more muscle. Oona is in the middle of this canoe to lower the centre of gravity.
Sonja's event had only one other participant, Sarah. Sonja and Sarah have six kids between them and they were on the dock to cheer their mummies on.
This Bullfrog is real. Oona has no fear and loves chasing frogs minnows and centipedes.She always releases her catches. Her dew worms for fishing have become her pets. They reside in my fridge next to the yogurt.
The object of this game is to collect as many styrofoam balls as possible. The most effective method is to stuff as many balls into your bathing suit as you can.
