Misty and I grew up in a small town in rural Missouri named Windsor - population of around 3,000 people. Each year Misty and I take the kids back to Windsor for the 4th of July celebration at Farrington Park put on by the Lion's Club of Windsor. This is a fun all-day event filled with games, food, music and fireworks. The events include:
- Frog Race
- Turtle Race
- Egg Race
- Sack Race
- Egg Toss
- Water Balloon Toss
- Softball Throw
- Watermelon Eating Contest
- Nail Driving Contest
- Cardboard Boat Race
- Local Music
- Fireworks Extravaganza (so to speak)
Our family enjoys participating in the various costests throughout the day. The egg toss, waterballoon toss and the softball throw are a few of our favorites. The kids generally do really well. This year our results were as follows:
- Noelle - First Place in the Egg Toss
- Noelle - First Place in the Softball Throw (65 feet)
- Noelle - Second Place in the Water Balloon Toss
