Fall Festival


Jocelyn and Beckton Fall Festival 2008...hair coloring and face painting!

Bounce house Cake Walk prize

Jocelyn's school had their annual PTA fundraiser tonight; The Fall Festival. Luckily it was fairly warm (no jackets needed). We bought 50 tickets for $10 at the beginning of the week and agreed, as a family, that when the tickets run out we leave! I was suppose to help with the tattoo booth but the traffic at 5:30 was slow so I played with the kids instead. As usual, there were many activities to choose from; bounces houses, bean bag tosses, face painting, hair coloring, pencil pulls, tattoos, auctions, cake walks, hayrides and all the other great carnival activities! Of course the kids favorite activities were the bounce houses, but were also ticket hogs! We all liked the booths that took only 1 ticket, they seemed to have the best prizes too; pencils, homemade cookies, stickers and whistles. Most of the activities didn't have prizes which was disappointing for Beckton, he thought we were tick-or-treating! Jocelyn got her hair colored...purple and Beckton got his face painted...a rainbow (don't ask). And we won a dozen Halloween cupcakes at the cake walk! Yay!for more fun in Texas.

That sounds like a lot of fun! You've gotta love anything that gets the kids out and entertained!
