Fall Carnival

This past weekend was Camron's school's fall carnival. Because there aren't enough activities this time of year, let's throw a carnival in there. I hope it was as successful for the school as it was for my kids.

Camron's favorite thing: Bowling the cans over. And he did it so well. He also enjoyed mini-golf - can you say hole in one! There's a golf legend in our midst.

Meaghan's favorite thing: Picking out a prize. She spent more time with her nose in the prize box than she did playing any of the games. It was a carefully-considered choice every time.

Most shocking part for me: Prizes ranged from everything like candy, to vampire teeth, to candy, to tattoos, to candy, to other knick-knacks. What kind of prize did my kids pick every time? Not the candy! Let's just say I have several sets of vampire teeth and tattoos. I couldn't even persuade them to get me a Tootsie Roll...not even just one. Whose kids are these? Where was my candy-infatuated daughter when I needed her?

Busy, I guess, doin' a little of this...

My golf pros.

What's a carnival without pink and green hair?

Playing his favorite game. Over and over and over again.

Searching for the magical fish.
And notice who's got her hand in the prize bowl... searching... searching... searching...

One set of what seems like 100 sets.

Still searching in yet another prize box.

Silly String corner.
