Carnival Party Success!

What a great time we had

at our birthday carnival party!

 

There are so many people

to thank for all of their

hard work. I could not have

done this by myself.

 

For instance, this ticket booth!

My Dear Hubs made it

using dumpster diving skills-

pulling plywood from the trash!

 

Even more amazing,

he whipped it together

the day before the party.

 

We used our canopy from the flea market

and created a concessions stand.

 

We had cupcakes and

ice cream, party hats ...

 

Games of all kinds

 

Penny Candy too!

(Note the chalkware puppy in the middle....

he was an actual carnival prize a long time ago!)

 

 

A prize table filled

with monkeys, gumball

machines, puzzles,

ribbon wands and more!

 

 

A big success and my favorite

part was the dance "zone!"

Do you remember

doing the hokey pokey,

the chicken dance, and the limbo?

 

If I couldn't remember how to

do them before, I sure remember now.

 

What fun!

 

Now, back to my regularly

scheduled life.

 

After a much needed rest!
