Crashin' the Carnival!

Friday night was the Fall Carnival at Valley Elementary...the kids old school. We decided that since the new school didn't have a carnival this year, that we would "crash" this one...and hopefully see some friends in the process! The fun thing about this carnival is that the kids get to dress up in their Halloween costumes! (They aren't allowed to at school...so sad!) So...Rylie is dressed up as Fancy Nancy (from the books), Parker is Harry Potter, and Mason is Peter (from Narnia). I was excited about going because this is the first time I've actually been able to enjoy it! All of the years we were at Valley, I was running the Silent Auction...so I was working while the rest of the family was playing!
Here's Rylie in her "Fancy" Pose!
The first people we saw when we got there were the Marshalls! Aren't Rylie and Sam cute!!!
Here are the boys with Carter...aka John Elway!
Rylie also found her friend Tiffany!
Here's Parker with his best buddy from kindergarten, Devin! They are sad not to be at the same school anymore!
The highlight of the night was when Rylie won the trophy for "cutest costume"! All she could say was, "this is my first trophy...I'm so excited"! In true "Fancy Nancy" form, she took a tumble (that's a fancy word for "fall") from the top of the steps during the costume contest. Her shoes, earrings, glasses, and purse went flying all over the place. She landed face first...but was ok. There was a dad there gathering all of her accessories up...it was so nice of him! She was a trooper...and the trophy made it worth all of the bumps and bruises! We had a great time!
