Halloween Hoopla 2007

The inflatable toddler area was a big hit!

Colouring is always fun!

Happy Belated Halloween

Draya had LOTS of fun at Halloween Hoopla in SpGr on Tuesday night.
Daddy was working the event (teaching juggling) so Mommy chased her everywhere. Mommy was VERY tired when the evening was over!
There was a cookie decorating station and Draya decorated and ate the icing and sprinkles off of two cookies.
She bounced in the bouncy tent four times and the attendants only had to go in and fish her out when her turn was over twice. As they were closing it down she desperately wanted another go - crying "Again, Again!"
In the Ronald McDonald Activity Zone Draya enjoyed the colouring tables and the flip-lid garbage cans. She kept picking up litter (and crayons) to throw out in them. She also liked the mini-golf and kept trying to steal the balls and walk on the edges of the mini greens while other kids putted. She also loved the loud music that the zone was playing and kept standing in the middle of everything to dance by herself.
She fearlessly entered the inflatable maze but had to exit early because the big kids were a little overwhelming.
The wee fairy princess was too small to slide on the giant blow-up slide. This frustrated her a great deal so she ran around backstage and in the TLC foyer instead.

From Monkey to Fairy Princess

So I found the CUTEST monkey costume for Draya at Stupid Store. Just $10 for a really nice toddler vest with an adorable monkey head hood. Only trouble, Draya screams and cries when we put it on her. Still cute but I hate to torture her. Anybody want a monkey costume - $10.

We all dressed up last night to go to a Halloween party at L&A's place. Mommy & Daddy were Naughty & Nice and Draya was a Fairy Princess. We were ready to go by 7:30 with plans to stay out till 10pm. Draya would fall asleep in the car on the way home for sure and we'd just carry her up to bed. Only problem, the car lights were left on after an excursion to the mall in the afternoon. No power left... no car... no going out... no party. AMA came by 8:30 but by then it was too late.
Oh well, Draya can wear her wings and pink tutu at Halloween Hoopla on Tuesday.
