Village Wars

Our subdivision is divided up into villages.  Every year they have village wars.  We thought it would be fun to participate, so we did.  Nels signed up to do the 5K run.  He didn't train or anything...and he hasn't worked out for a long time.  Silly boy, but he did it anyways. :)  He got second place out of all the 37 year olds that competed.  How many 37 year olds were there...Nels didn't tell me. :)

Here he is warming up with the group.

 Before the race.

 There he is running.

 Giving us a little wave as he passed us.

 And finishing with a time of 30 minutes 30 seconds.

 Here he is with his fans. :)

 We both played corn hole and won 3rd place.  Then I played volleyball and ping pong.
Nels competed in the pie eating contest.  You know, to balance out the run he did this morning. :)

 The guy next to him won.  But Nels gave a valiant effort.

It was a lot of fun to play games and get to know more people.
