Fall Festival and Other Festivities

Last Friday was the Fall Festival at the kids school. Many months of planning came to fruition with the best festival yet! There were a couple issues though...like the car that was STOLEN from the parking lot during set-up! From an elementary school? Really? Not sure of the details like whether the car was open or not but I did hear it was a brand new Lincoln Continental. And possibly an unethical vendor who turned in three times the amount of tickets any vendor has EVER turned in...after she made a comment like "you guys should really get tickets printed with your school name on them." Why? Because it would stop people like you from robbing a PTA blind by turning in tickets from the festival you did last week?

But for the majority of folks, it was a great event. And drama-free as far as PTA goes which is incredibly comforting for this potential president-elect.

On Sunday, we went to Comanche Park for the NAPA Company picnic. It had just rained and the playground, bounce house and fields were damp, but a fun time was had by all. Mark and I even won the horseshoe competition. Had everyone believing I was an Iowa State Champion (temporarily) and took home gift cards to Texas Roadhouse. Mark and the management also won the softball game. The kids kept busy with sports, face painting and a fishing carnival game with cute prizes.
