Carnival Time!

After a long couple months of planning, the Tony Tobin Spring Carnival was finally here! The day turned out great, ran very smoothly (with only a few occasional bumps in the road), and our families had a ton of fun.
Grandma, Grandpa, and Jax came down for the day, so they met me there once the carnival started. They ran around playing games, climbing the rock wall, going through the blow-up obstacle course, getting lots of food and snacks, and getting their crazy hair done. I tried to catch up with them when I could.


Zoe got to spend some time with her favorite little guy, Denton!Time for crazy hair!
At the end of the carnival it was time for our raffle baskets to be won, and our silent auction to finish up. Grandma helped Cooper bid for "Breakfast with Mrs. Falciano!" He was determined to win this, so he chose to stand guard for a while to try to stop some other bidders! Too cute. He did end up winning by the way, so he'll be heading to breakfast (probably IHOP!) with Mrs. Falicano and another kid from his class.
Zoe really wanted to win a raffle basket. Her favorite was the American Girl basket, but it had a TON of tickets in it, so her chances weren't very good. She decided to pick a few that weren't as popular. Her theory worked, and she ended up winning a smaller basket with a free haircut, some hair and body washes, and free gift cards to frozen yogurt. She was a happy girl!
It was a VERY long day, and a lot of work went into this event. I am lucky to be working with such a great group of people in our PTA Board. Thanks ladies for all of your hard work!

After the carnival, we headed out to dinner to celebrate my dad's birthday. The day didn't end there and it was off to another baseball game. Cooper's team played great and ended with a big win, but Coop was exhausted. We made it home by 9 and hit the showers to get all of that crazy hair color out. Whew...time for some rest!
