Fall Fun Fest

Wednesday we went to the Fall Fun Fest at our church. I have attended this every year I was in town since I was 12 so there are a lot of great memories.

Having 2 girls means we have a ton of dress up outfits so rather than buying a Halloween costume I just let Katherine choose one of her dress up outfits to wear. Her favorite princess is Cinderella so that is what she chose. I then gave her the choice of matching or not matching Caroline and she wanted to match so we had 2 Cinderella's.
This year our church really wanted the event to be more of an outreach. They went all out. There were probably 10 inflatables and 40 carnival games.
Katherine and Caroline loved the bouncy inflatable. It was the perfect level of difficulty and fun. There was a toddler obstacle course inflatable. Of course Caroline wanted to go through with Katherine. She is so brave. There were fun preschool games like go fish, ring toss and choose a duck. There was candy or other prizes for participating in each game. I liked that there were other prizes this year as well. Nana and Pops joined us for the evening. The girls always love spending time with them and it was a great help to have extra hands with the 100's of kids in costume.
The oddest thing that we did was the caterpillar tunnel. Once you went in, it was really just a tunnel but the exit was a little odd as you crawled out of the caterpillar's back end.

Yes, oh my goodness, yes! There were lots of digestive system jokes to be made about that caterpillar.
