The annual school carnival is always an exciting time for the kids, not so much for the parents. Jayden had the first shift in the concession stand. The boys came with Mark, had a quick supper, then headed in for games. This year I signed up to help at the “Angry Birds” game. It was basically a bean bag toss at some cans stacked in a tower. Mark supervised Luke until my shift was over. The carnival was crowded and a lot going on. Jake didn’t have a very good time. He was looking so forward to it. He waited in long lines only to to be told to go to the end of the line, a classmate pushed him out of line,and all his ballon creations got popped. It just was not a good night for the poor kid. I also managed to buy 50 raffle tickets and forgot to put them in the drawing. I wondered why our names never got called for any prizes. Eventually I took the boys around and did all the games once then headed in to the prize room. The kids combined tokens and the boys got a Disney Cars race car with remote that actually drives up and down the walls. Pretty cool and a great toy for the amount of tokens we had. Mark that off the list for the year of things you have to do as a parent.
