It's Carnival Time!

Every year for as long as anyone I know can remember, the elementary school at the end of our road has held a carnival.

So on carnival night we packed up the kids and went to check it out.

It was an instant hit since they had a bounce around.  The kids didn't even mind waiting in the 15 minute line to get in.  In fact, the waited twice!

This bouncy maze thing was pretty cool too.  You enter through the hole on one end.  Navigate through the pillars.

Climb through some walls.

And end up on the other side.  Two people can go at one time and race or one person can go at a bouncy pace.  Heidi picked the bouncy pace.

More waiting in line.  It rained out that night so Heidi had the appropriate foot wear on.  To bad the carnival is held inside the school...

I really do find it impossible to get all three of them to be looking at the camera at the same time and not making a crazy face or be talking. I love this picture because they are each doing one of the things that make picture taking so difficult!

It was a lot of family fun. Even Shawn danced his way through the Junk Food walk!

All of the girls won something.

Heidi picked a polar bear stuffy because who doesn't need 7 polar bear stuffies?

Emily won a book in the book walk that came with a sweet bathtub toy!

And Jess got some donuts which the kids promptly devoured the next morning.

Over all it was a blast! We spent a ton of money and had a great time. We look forward to next year!
