2nd Annual Taggart Penny Carnival

Last year on the Saturday after the first week of school we had a penny carnival.  Haley had been asking me all summer if she could have one and we were finally able to have it that Saturday.  It was so fun and successful that we decided to do it again.  So the Saturday after the first week of school we had our 2nd Annual Taggart Penny Carnival.  I recruited Nate, Haley, Andy, and the Towe girls (Autumn and Hayley) to work the booths.  It was a lot of fun again and we've decided to have it every year!
 
 Hayley Towe was in charge of the Treat Table.  It was so hot that the Rice Krispie treats melted into giant mounds.  I don't think we will do those next year!
 
 Haley did balloon animals and hats again.  Next year we will get the nice expensive balloons because they kept popping and she had a hard time sculpting her creations.
 
 Nate was working the fishing booth and Andy (below) was working the Penny Toss booth.

 My sweet babies!  I just had to throw these in as well.

 Nathan helped by running the Shooting Range booth.  It was the most popular and he was really great with all the kids!
 
 Marilyn brought these walkie talkies back from China.  They have earbuds and microphones on the ear bud cords.  The boys were wearing them and I thought they looked like the secret service.  They were wearing them so that they could talk to each other during the carnival.


 Alina got the idea to stand behind the glass of our shooting range.  Nathan was giving the kids extra points if they hit her nose or got it in her mouth.  Haley joined her.
