Halloween Carnival

Last night was the kids' school carnival.  They were so excited.  Mom not so much.

They are crowded and hot.

But the kids had a great time!  Even Ciara was a good girl and stayed close to her Mommy.  Maybe it was the fact that there were monsters everywhere she looked, but I didn't have to go chase her once through out the night.

The school had several areas set up for the kids including scary stories, ghost walks, haunted aisles, tattooes, nail painting, prize wheels, fishing ponds, bean bag toss, bag decorating and pizza.
My only complaint.  The carnival stated at 4:00 and the pizza was out by 5:30.  I wasn't going to have my kids eat their pizza at 4:00.  They would be hungry by the time we left.  Next time, we go straight for the pizza.  I was pretty upset when I went to grab some dinner (that we had already paid for) and they were out.  It's pizza.  If people have paid for it already and you are running low, why not order more?  I understand there are budgets but it was already paid for. So I just don't get it.  I was a bit upset because I hadn't planned on anything else for dinner at home.  So it was the dollar menu at McDonalds for us!

Forgive the pictures, it is hard when they are constantly moving and I just have a little camera phone!
