School Carnival

I am WAY behind in my blog posts, so you will just have to bear with me as I get caught up. I have some things that I really want to get up here, even though they happened awhile ago.

SO, let's start with the school carnival last Saturday. Since Preston is in Kindergarten this year, we were asked to help work the BINGO booth, to bring a bottle of pop, an arts and crafts item and a recipe {which I forgot! OOPS!!}.

We started the evening by working our 30 minute shift first and then getting to go play all the games. There were a TON of different things for the kids to choose from. Preston couldn't wait to play the ring toss, because he was just absolutely certain he would bring home a bottle of pop. It took a few tries, but he eventually got one!! WOOHOO!

Train rides outside were fun, but a little chilly!!

This particular game was another one where you could win a can of pop. For three tickets you got three chances to throw a football through a tire. If you were a big kid the tire was swinging, but for these little guys the tire was still. Preston went first and made 1 out of 3. He moved on to another game, which was good thing, because his little sister stepped up and got 2 out of 3!!!

We had a fun time and can't wait to go again next year!

This is the one kind of carnival that we always come home with more than we sent!! (UUMMM soda-wise--the gift baskets are another story!) They have been a lot of fun though--unless you end up working a hundred shifts because no one else shows up--just wait till you have 3 kids in SCES/SCMS at once--whoosh, hit hard!!

Oh my gosh! I can remember school carnivals from when I was a kid. All that fun flavored pop looks so tasty! Glad you all had a blast!
