This past weekend, while also my birthday weekend, was
the annual Fall Festival for our school district. They put on a haunted house and each of the
classes and organizations sponsor a booth that either hosts a game or sells
items. There were lots of things up for silent auction, including some bizarre items... which my friend won in the bid :)
In case you can't read that, it says 750 square feet of tile. Custom celing tile.
My two youngest, both in high school, are in 4H and as
such worked the 4H booth – for my girl that meant her time was split between
being a yearbook photographer and 4H and working her class booth and 4H. We were so well staffed, in no small way thanks
to my son, that she got off the hook and had a whopping 15 minutes to relax
between the other two gigs.
My son, though… he worked the 4H booth almost the entire
evening and made it fun! While there
were moments he was selling things left and right, there was still plenty of time
to relax and have some giggles.
He even let a small child “pet the horsey nose!” What a great kid!
There is a lot to be said for simple clean fun for any age to enjoy. All you have to do is allow yourself to enjoy it!
