$12 day

Last Saturday, one of the elementary schools in town had a little carnival for the kids. Clint was out of town and it was a nice day, so I figured we'd pop over for a bit. Here's what we got for the $12 in tickets:

2 faces painted (and one rash from a face paint allergy, who knew?)
1 bottle of sand art (made by Gavin, shaken and messed up by Carson)
4 tries at the cake walk (never a winner)
10 darts thrown at balloons (awesome puppet prize)
30 coins tossed (3 handfuls of candy)
97 turns on the bouncy obstacle course and slide
1 opossum and 1 lemur observed from Wild Things, Inc.
2 hot dogs
1 hamburger
2 juice boxes
1 bag of popcorn
2 1/2 hours of fun
AND only 1 kid who peed their pants.
It was a great deal and a super fun day...complete with Glod Fish. I mean, really what's a carnival without glod fish?

Erin, you are so witty. I love the part about one of your kiddos wetting their pants. Sounds like an adventure!

What's a glod fish? Just kidding, it sounded like a blast.
