The Carnival

 Tommy and Charlotte's daycare/school held their annual fundraiser over the weekend. We have never attended the carnival before and this was the first weekend we didn't have plans so we decided to go for it. 

 Right before we left, Charlotte and Tommy were fighting over a tape measure and Charlotte sliced her thumb open.  It looks pretty nasty and we almost took her to urgent care but we were able to stop the bleeding and bandage it up so we opted not to go.

 The kids were definitely glad we chose the carnival.  There was a 2 and under room with a bounce house that Charlotte loved. Look at that air time!

 You could dunk a teacher! Tommy thought that was exciting.

 You could get your picture taken. 

 Charlotte cracks me up in the this picture. 

 

The kids loved sliding in their bounce houses.  

 I'm not kidding when I say Tommy probably went down the slide 100 times.  Ok maybe not that many but definitely 40 times. 

 Charlotte and her friend Zoe had a great time playing in the 2 and under room.  They were so cute together. 

 Then we watched a magician.  No one would sit very close.  It was an 'interesting' show, I guess I'll say. 

Andrew finally asked at the end if he could go down the slide. Of course he could!

 

 Look at that smile! He was waiting to do that all day!

 At the end they had a drawing.  I put Tommy's name on probably 10 tickets and he won two door prizes.  He won the boys toy basket and the sports basket.  The toys were a ninja turtle, a captain america shield, a bunch of hot wheels,  monster trucks, power rangers thingy, a giant track thing, and a $25 toys r us gift card.  The sports basket was a Matt Painter signed basketball, a bunch of sauces and a $25 gift card to Buffalo Wild Wings. 

 Tommy made out like a bandit!! Look at all that loot.  He was so excited about winning.  He's apparently very lucky too! Wow!! 2 out of 6 door prizes!! Are you kidding me?? There was a boy whose family put in 38 tickets try to win the toys.  The boy and his brother came up after the drawing.  The brother said, "He really wanted to win the prize.  Can he have just one of the toys?"  We thought it was an odd request but we agreed because it was awkward already.  He picked out a set of hot wheels cars.  He told us he really liked hot wheels.  I was glad we could at least cheer him up a bit. 

First year attending the carnival was definitely a success!!
