School Carnival

Last night was Mira's school carnival. It was a lot of fun, with games for the kids, a raffle, and a gift basket silent auction. We're sure they are going to deliver the new grill we tried to win in the raffle any minute now!

Mira broke a board with her hand!
And so did Amelia!
Amelia threw a hula hoop over a stuffed dog!
Here is Mira trying to win an iCarly poster by throwing a football through a hole. She almost got it, but not quite. (Birthday gift idea!)
They had a hair painting station that Mira and Amelia just had to try! Voi-la! The results: Mira picked pink and blue pigtails with glitter:
Amelia picked pigtail buns and a combination of pink, purple, and blue for her hair. And glitter, of course!
Of course, the carnival was right before bedtime, so both girls insisted on sleeping in their new hair style!

And no carnival at a school wouldn't be complete without a visit to the "nurse"! All the kids came out looking worse for the wear than when they went in. They all loved the new bloody bandage!
It was a really fun family evening. Tonight: date night for me and Chris!
