The Carnival at Eddins!

Tonight was the carnival at Eddins. We had a blast! First, we ate pizza and drank cokes in the cafeteria --- reserving slushies for the trip home (blue for CJ and red for Kyle).

Then we went out back behind the school to jump in the jumphouses and run through the mazes. It was a lot of fun. We almost tried out the human hamster ball but at the last minute realized it was just too scary!

After jumping and bouncing and running, we headed inside to play games. There were different games in each classroom: basketball, whirlyball, golf, pumpkin roll, karoke, duck pond, fishing, ring toss, bowling, knocking over cans, sack races and tons of others. We did everything at least once.

Alyssa's big event of the night --- Stuffed Animal walk where she won a pink kitty.

CJ's big event of the night --- two rings on one post in the ring toss

Kyle's big event of the night --- hole in one in the center hole in golf (he was the only one who had been able to do it all night!)

Mom's big event of the night --- catching pictures of rapidly moving children and convincing those same children to choose toy prizes instead of candy!
