Fall Festival

We went to Caleb's first school Fall Festival on Friday!  He had a great time getting to pick and choose what games and activities he wanted to spend his tickets on.
 
We arrived at 4:00pm when it kicked off and decided to get in line for the face painting right as it opened so that we didn't have to wait in line for a long time later on.  While Joshua and I saved our spot in line Caleb and David made a little toolbox at the Home Depot booth which was right next to the face painting booth.  The timing couldn't have worked out any better, as soon as he finished his building project he was next in line to get his face painted.  David and I joked about how he will sit so still to get his face painted but any other time you can't get him to sit this still.  He loved how it turned out and didn't want to wash it off that night when it was time for bed.
 
 

He had a lot of fun playing on the inflatables, going through some mazes, playing games, winning a cupcake at the cupcake walk, eating ice cream and socializing with his friends.  While Caleb played David and I reminisced about the different activities we had at our school carnivals.

 Little brother loves him some food and was not happy with the ice cream was all gone.

I would say that we can mark this night down as a huge success.  We all had a great time, the weather was perfect and it was just starting to get pretty crowded as we were leaving.  I love this time of year and am loving participating in things with Caleb during his first year of school!
