Spring Fling




 We went to our annual School Spring Fling.  Its like a carnival to raise money for our school.  The kids love it.  We had a great time this year.  They kids are getting old enough…they head off with their friends and we hardly see them for the rest of the night.  I did get a few pictures of them, and they seemed to be having a great time. Preston spent most of his time at the dunk tank.  He loved it.  Shaylee and Addison wanted their face painted so I stood in the long line for them while they weren't around to different booths. Breck enjoyed the bounce houses. Our school does a raffle for baskets full of different things.  You can buy tickets and put them toward a basket you want to win  if they pull your ticket you win the basket.  This is actually where they earn most of there money.  The kids go crazy over these baskets.  They had lagoon tickets and even Disneyland tickets this year.  I let the kids each put a 1$ worth of tickets in whichever basket they wanted.  there was 101 baskets this year.  We were walking to our car when we heard Addison's name chosen as a winner of one of the baskets.  She won 4 free swim passes to the hurricane pool, and squirt guns, a sprinkler toy, bubbles, and a bunch of outside water toys.  They were so excited.  I guess all that prepping that they weren't going to win because their chances weren't great, and it's a waste of money…really sent the message home.  ;)  I really think every time I give that talk we end up winning something.  I think I need to give them this lesson in Vegas. ;)
