Family Fun Night




The PTO put on a family fun night at the little woman's school.  So we went after we were done with other things.  The fun was suppose to run from 4-7.  We got there about 5:30.  Paid our admission/donation and the kids were told to decorate bags for all the candy they could get. They did that.  We looked at the baskets for the silent auction.  All out of our range, but they were lovely.  Then we went to the gym for the fun.  And they did have fun, but the candy was long gone.  Little kids do not totally understand why all the other kids have full bags of candy and they don't.
Then they wanted to go out to the bounce house.  Which happened to shut down.  So they moved over to the shooting hoops thing but it wasn't manned so there was just chaos there.  No one was going to get to try except the boys that hogged the front.  Okay.  Luckily the bounce house opened back up and they got in the long line.  Did that and they liked it.
Checked out the book fair.  And I remembered a lesson I learned a long time ago. Book fairs are not cheap.  Buying from scholastic through the classroom is better and you get good deals.  They each got a poster.  She told me hers was from a movie.  I didn't know.  She had even already has seen the movie.  Wow.
About this time I am done.  They have had fun even with the mishaps and that is what counts.  And about that time someone passed through the lobby telling us pizza was half price.  So we had pizza for dinner.  And they each ate it.  I think she was hungry.
