Fall Festival

Our community had its fall festival this past weekend.  Instead of feeling like fall, it felt like a hot, summer day!  If it weren’t for a few fall-ish decorations, we would have had no idea we were there to celebrate fall.

The girls enjoyed the usual variety of festival entertainment – a concert, rides/inflatables, face painting, glitter tattoos, and balloon friends.

The ride we waited for the longest by far was this bungee apparatus.  It’s been there every year that we’ve gone to the festival, and every year the line takes forever, and every year they want to wait in it.  Nina, in particular, really wanted to be able to flip backwards on it this year.  She was all psyched up to do it but then started jumping and almost didn’t try.  However, she all of a sudden got the courage to try it, threw her knees to her chest, and over she went.  She was super excited and proud of herself.  After Lyla saw Nina doing it, she wanted to try flipping also.  I can’t believe she was able to do it also, but she was!

Even though it felt nothing like fall, we still had a good time at the festival!
