Whirlwind of Weekend!
We started our weekend off with Tailgator, a money-maker carnival for the PTO at Claire's school (the gator is the mascot of the school). There were bounce houses, an obstacle course, rock climbing wall, carnival games, ponies, hot air balloon rides, raffles, silent auctions, and much more! This was a HUGE ordeal, I have seen nothing like it! I am friends with some of the organizers...they told me 1400 people attended! For a school function! The kids had a blast bouncing, playing and eating snow cones. Daddy won the silent auction "Teacher Time" for Claire's teacher...Claire will go to Chuck E Cheese with her teacher and a friend...and Mommy got to run around keeping everyone in check (we didn't ride the hot air balloon, it was cool until the air started blowing in, and that was enough to frighten both kiddos)! Saturday we cleaned, cooked (for Sunday) and then went out to eat with some neighborhood friends and the builder of Geoff's new office building. This was a wilder group than we are used to...but most brought their kids and therefore it was a night of playing and chatting! Sunday we went to church, had lunch and then rested before going over to a friend from church's home for dinner with them and another family (who happen to be from our neighborhood). They grilled while the kids played...and then the adults relaxed while the kids played. It worked out well! But, we have had several long nights and therefore bedtime will be quite early...what time is it now?
