The Fall Festival

The kids’ school had their fall festival on the 19th.  Marissa wanted to ride the horses, so we got in line for that.  Jonathan complained that he didn’t want to ride the horses, he wanted to go into the bounce house.  We told him that we would ride horses first and then walk over there.  Then, however, Marissa’s attention was drawn toward the bounce house.  “I want to go over there!” said Marissa.  We questioned her several times about doing this because last year she left the Fall Festival in tears because she hadn’t had a chance to ride the horses.  We finally said okay and started walking toward the bounce house.  “But I want to ride the horses,” said Jonathan.  Yeah…this is what it’s like to have kids.  So we split up.  The kids also had a good time eating donuts off a string and riding around in golf carts with their teachers.
