Friday night, YPG had its Fall Festival. We all had a really nice time, and the kids loved dressing up in their costumes.

The crew, my cowboys and cowgirl

A beautiful sunset on our walk down the street to the festival

Evening in the desert

Cowgirl Madison

Cowboy Alex, who was super tired after taking NO naps (usually has two)

Madison was super excited to see a rock wall. She didn't waste any time.





Cowboy Luke enjoyed watching. He even brought popcorn to keep him entertained.


She did it!

Scaling down the wall


As you can see, she did all of that climbing in her cowgirl boots!

The costume contest...

Cowgirl Madison with some of her kindergarten friends. None of the kids won, but Alex did come in second for his age category. They picked some strange winners. One who didn't win that should have was a set of brothers dressed as snipers. They had on all sorts of rags and such to look like ground cover. Gotta love the Army!

Luke really wanted to do the cake walk contest. We had made a cake and a ton of cupcakes for the festival, and he was determined to win something we made back. We didn't win any of them! Oh well, we didn't need the cake anyways.

I took the boys home, while Edward and Madison walked down the street to the post haunted house. There, they ran into our neighbors. Supergirl and Cowgirl waiting in line...

Joined by Little Red Riding Hood...Madison has a nice group of little girls here to play with all the time.
It's sad that is our last Halloween festival here at YPG. One of the best things about such a small base is knowing everyone. It makes festivals fun. We also love that we can walk everywhere! That will be missed wherever we move next.
The kids look great!!! I'm impressed with Madison's climbing ability! Looks like it was a successful evening. :-)
ReplyDeleteThat rock wall looks awesome! The cake walk at our school carnival was always a favorite of my family. I like the common-themed costumes among the kids. :)
ReplyDeleteVery cute costumes, and you should take Madison to Joshua tree =)
