It was COLD Saturday morning.....
and we were having a Fall Festival ... not advertised, mainly for the residents...
And, man, I dreaded it. I'd been sort of roped in to manning the pumpkin painting. 'Cause I paint, the organizer said. Oh, geez, how hard is it to paint a teeny, tiny pumpkin. But, I said I'd help so I headed downstairs.
As you can tell, I wasn't in the mood but it started warming up and I was inside. And, people started mingling.
And, then we all had free hotdogs and chips for lunch. So, I was a pretty happy camper!
Later on that evening I watched MY ALABAMA football team lose to Tennessee. Bummer, double bummer. What a day.
* to do the pie walk it's sort of like musical chairs. You walk around and when the music stops, if you are on the lucky spot, you get a prize.
Yum...I could go for a pie right now! You live in a cheerful place! Nice of you to help out. andrea
ReplyDeleteI like pie!
ReplyDeleteGood for you for helping. Glad you had fun and won a pie. I've seen this done as a cake walk before.
ReplyDeleteI loved the cake walks when I was a kid and our church had their Fall Festivals. Even now, to win a huge cake during a cake walk is really neat but I don't like losing. Ha! I like the idea of having pie walks too:)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun day and pie! Pie makes every day better for me.
ReplyDeleteWe do a 'cake walk' at our church's Harvest Party. Same idea, when the music stops, they draw a number and if you're standing on it you win! That's always the favorite room during the evening. I'm glad you eventually enjoyed yourself at the Fall festival. :) With you in charge I bet everyone's pumpkins were beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYou got a pie for all your work! How fun!
