Family Fun Day

Talmage's school had a family fun day. Not sure why they called it family fun day since it was held on a Friday during school hours so basically only parents and kids to young to be in school could go. Hayden and I watched Talmage and his class sing 2 songs and recite a pretty long poem. They did a great job. They spent a lot of time practicing. Then they handed out Pre K graduation certificates. Then it was time for the fun part. They had the parking lot filled with all sorts of fun games and activities. They had a big blow up jumping thing, face painting/tattoos, sand art, fishing station, bubbles, cookie decorating, arts and crafts. For the first half I was in charge of the fish station. The kids would throw their fishing poles over and I would clip a prize on and then they would lift it up. Luckily their were plenty of prizes to give a way because some of the same people kept coming back about 10 times. They still wouldn't get the hint that I wouldn't give them the cool prizes after giving them some of the not so great stuff about 6 times. They also had cake and fruit and Popsicles. Later, they did a pinata. Since their are 2 Pre K classes each class did one pinata. I have to say out of the 2 classes Talmage's class by far got the best candy (I mean come on who brought the grandma red and white Brachs mints. Probably someone trying to get rid of them). The parents had to sign up to bring either food for anyone to eat at the party or candy for the pinata.


Jon missed the class program, but Hayden and I got their early so we could get a front row seat so I could video tape it without the back of someones head in the way. He arrived shortly after we went outside.

After the party, we took Talmage home with us and went to lunch at Steak and Shake and used our free meal cards so our meal for 4 of us to eat with tip only cost $5.00. Not too bad.

Here are some pictures of the day.
