Halloween Carnival


Tonight was the annual Halloween Carnival for the married student housing. Every RA area was in charge of doing a station and we decided to do bobbing for apples. Although a little unsanitary, I tried not to let too many kids stick their faces too far down so that they touched the water as little as possible. There were a few teenage brothers, however that decided to race each other and stuck their whole faces in and got water everywhere. One of them must have just gotten their hair cut because there was tons of hair in the water after that. Needless to say, I changed the water and rinsed out the tub after that. Shelby had lots of fun watching the kids get the apples and looking at and playing with the water. Since we had a lot of apples Shelby was curious about them so I bit off the peel (from one in the bag) and let her scrape the pulp with her teeth. I think she really liked it.
I also took Shelby to the bale of hay to get her picture taken, she didn't like the feel of it and wouldn't sit there though. All in all, it was a fun night. We didn't get home too late, we have some tasty ice cream to eat with the yummy chocolate sauce from grandma, and Ben and I get to spend some time together after being separated while Shelby and I were at grandma and grandpa's house.

I love Shelby's orange bow, too cute! Yeah, I saw those teenage boys sticking their whole bodies in the barrel and that was it for me, haha! Nasty about their hair...sick!
