4th of July Kids Carnival

Cannot believe it has taken me over a week to blog about our big Carnival that we hosted on the 4th of July.  After being inspired by Pinterest, I thought it would be fun to do it for Hope and her friends so they could see each other in the summer.  But I didn't get serious until my friend Tammy said she sounded like fun too AND she would help!  So here are the pictures of our good time!

Have to say that one of the funnest parts of the day was watching the kids at the 3-legged races!


Congratulations to the winners Kate & Abella!


What a day! 
 Even as exhausted as I was the 2nd half of the day...I would do it again in a heartbeat.  
So much fun for the kids!!


P.S. A BIG THANKS to everyone who helped prepare and during the event.
