Creekside's Fall Festival

Creekside puts on a fall festival where every class mans a carnival booth.  Any carnival game you can imagine, they've got it.  And this year Tatum's class had the Gecko Wheel of Fortune.  Tatum signed up to man the booth for a half hour and her friend Destiny stopped by to visit!

While Tatum was working, Ty, Grandma and I hit a few of the games.  Each kid had a set amount of tickets so they had to figure out which games they wanted to play and how many tickets they'd need.  It was really hard for Ty since he wanted to play them all of course.  But at each game, whether you won or not, you got a prize.  Each kid had a bag to keep their goodies in and couldn't wait to empty it on the kitchen floor when we got home. :)

Garrett manned the booth with Tatum too, so fun!
And at one point, Parker came over and got behind there with Tatum.  Garrett said he got booted. :)  I asked Tatum later why Parker was behind there.  Her and Parker sit next to one another and seem to really get along.  She said they'd talked about it in class and he wanted to come help her while she was on the job.  So cute.  I think he wanted her to come back when he was manning the booth later that night but we left before his turn.  This event raises lots of money for our school and such a great opportunity to meet families, reach out to the neighborhood and enjoy our school.
