Let the Games Begin!

To get into the Olympic spirit JP and I decided that we were going to host an Olympic kick off party. Friday night, before the opening ceremony, we had our 1st Durfey Family Olympics! The party started off with a delicious assortment of Chinese food (thanks to Mark and his Hong Kong roots in bringing some of the "real" Chinese food:). Dinner was followed with Soccer, relay races, distance race, discus throw, and a few other events. During the events dreams were achieved, records were made, and no injuries occurred! After the events we had the medal ceremony. JP and made a platform for the medalists to stand on and the Star Spangled Banner was playing in the background as we placed the medals around the necks of the winners.

Our 1st Durfey Olympics is an evening that will be remember by many for years to come! Some of the gracious winners!
Most of the cheering section!
