Our Awesome charter school hosted a Pirate Festival for our annual carnival fundraiser. There were games, music, food, entertainment, rides and good times to be had by all!
The whole playground was transformed and each class hosted a game booth. Ours was the Ducky Pond. It was monitored by volunteers from our classroom and they did a wonderful job. HeaBug had to make sure everything was in working order and spent a lot of her tickets here!
I made a banner for our class utilizing an old banner that we had printed for a pirate themed birthday for JT a few years ago. I snapped pictures of all of his classmates and teacher and used apps on my iphone to transform them into cute pirate pictures!Silly string was the big winner of the day. Kids were running around spraying each other, their parents, teachers and anyone else in a good mood. Our playground looked like it had confetti all over by the end of the day.
There were aerial acrobat performers, chinese dragon dancers, huge carnival rides and lots of food and fun. What made it even cooler was that GG (Great Grandma Booth) was visiting with us for the whole day. She joined us for JT's baseball game early that morning and got to stay the whole day with us. Maga and Tutu also hung out with us and the other older Booths came for a little while.The kiddos enjoyed the day so much and were wiped out by the time GG had to head home.
Mr. B took off after the carnival to hop in a Penske with our brother in law Craig and drive straight through to Atlanta, Georgia. Our company built some scenic element for the Katy Perry tour and due to delays, we weren't able to make the deadline for the shipping company. Our stuff had to be on site by Monday morning so Mr. B and Craig drove it there, taking route 40 the whole way through and dropped off the pieces Monday just outside Atlanta. Then they hopped on a plane and were home by Monday night! Keeps us on our toes!
