Havi's school had it's Fall Festival this past weekend. A HUGE event that makes up for most of the fundraising for the school each year - since becoming a parent of and elementary school child, I've found that every school seems to have a Fall Festival each year.
I'm not convinced Havi really knew what to expect so she was a chatterbox the whole 0.8 mile walk to school. Non-stop.
Half way there we saw the signs and that made the anticipation even greater!
The bounce houses, games, barrel train ride and art projects were a hit. The sweets as prizes at each game (no winning required) were an even bigger hit.
Enjoying a snowcone! Climbing the obstacle course.
Beanbag Toss and Duck Catching!!
Racing Katie on the obstacle course.
On the way home we found the longest ever ant trail and stopped to investigate for a while. Did you know ants never sleep? Havi did... thanks to Wild Kratts :-)
For those not in the know, Chuck E. Cheese is a 'restaurant'/amusement arcade catering towards kids. They serve pizza and you can buy coins for the games, that then spit out tickets.... the tickets are collected then spent on prizes. It's an odd place for a birthday party as the guest inevitably end up in totally different places and only see each other when it's time to eat and cut the cake.
Havi had fun playing the games and pocketed 73 tickets... which were exchanged for a plastic stingray to scare Daddy with, a dollar sign ring and a squishy fish!
Most importantly the birthday girl had fun and I realized that the count down to six years old is on for Havi!
