It's over!

Well, Fall Fest went off without a hitch! We were crowded until about 2 o'clock. I mean all 72 of my chairs at the tables were full and all the activities and games were full!!! We had lots of people!

We brought in almost $1200 in ticket sales just today. That's on top of the $700 in presale tickets! We also have to total up the silent auction which should bring in around $2000. And did I mention the $4200 in sponsorships? Of course I did have to spend a couple of thousands of dollars but we came out on top!

Here are some pics.

Our bounce house and food area.




Our train!




Our silent auction (I won a massage and facial, dr. won some time at a shooting range, and I also got some of the cute door hanger signs!)




Our petting zoo with the softest baby llama you will ever meet.




The slide and game area with a couple of extra tables




Our cake walk. Dr. Won a delicious bundt cake after Chuck kicked him off of a number. So Dr. Moved and ended up winning!




The silly string corral.




Game tables. The boy sitting in the chair is the stepson of a girl that went to high school with Dr. I sprayed his hair blue and his stepmom said he thought he was really cool. Her text to me said ":) Jacob loved it. Asked me if he could help you every year. Nicks been asleep since he got home. "




Football toss and a volunteer.




Face painting and hair coloring.




I just knew Chuck would be exhausted. Unfortunately he will not go to sleep. It must be the 3 sno cones he ate.

The weather was very cloudy, humid, and high 70's. Don't mind the 40% chance of rain that they were predicting until they changed the forecast yesterday. I knew it was going to be a perfect day when a swarm of ladybugs showed up yesterday to help set up. My friend also found a ladybug today flying around and sought me out just to give me the ladybug.

Now it's time to sleep, until baby decides he wants a bottle.
