Woodland Preschool Carnival and Bake Sale

On Saturday, March 23rd, Pepper's preschool held their annual carnival and silent auction. I volunteered to be in charge of the bake sale. It had already been a crazy week with the Women at the Well program, baking and making sure we had everything we needed for the big day. I was super tired but it all went really well and I enjoyed being able to help the preschool. We were steadily busy from beginning to end and I feel like it all went really well. I am, however, glad it is over...and so is my kitchen...and Cody who cleaned it all up!
Missy, my co-captain, and our beautiful display.

The pricey table.
The $4 banana bread was by far our fastest seller.

I made these to have some little items for the kids.
 I added pez to the top and they were a pretty big hit.


Cody and the kids came a little later to enjoy the festivities. It was a pirate theme for all of the games and decor. I was able to sneak away to have a little lunch with them but basically they had all the fun without me.
Winning candy is serious work.





This little lady screamed for me every time Cody passed the bake sale table so ended up walking around with her binky to make it easier on Daddy.


Everyone waiting for Ms. Susan to paint their faces. Not Sarah's best picture.


She really was having a fantastic time I swear.


Catching a little air in the bouncy house.
I promised Cody I would take it easy with the silent auction this year. I lucked out and there were tons of great baskets so I was able to snag an arts and crafts basket for Morgan and princess basket for Pepper.


I love this pic and these two faces!


Some serious gaming happening at home as well.

Already hard at work on a princess poster picture from her basket.

My pies and challah.

I took this shot with my iPhone and I loved the way it turned out.
A calm little girl amidst the chaos of the carnival.
I am so glad this big event is over but a little sad that the school year and all the fun activities they put on is drawing to a close.
