Passport to Fun

Last night was the "Passport to Fun" festival/fundraiser at Kellen's elementary school. Kellen's school studies a different continent at each grade level, so everything was themed "international". It started with an Italian dinner, which was surprisingly good with generous servings. Then the classrooms and gym were filled with various games. There was also a bake sale, a silent auction and an international taste-testing table, which was "interesting" to say the least!

Here are the girls getting ready to go play all the games! Notice the bags they were given to collect candy at the different games. Like we needed any more candy just barely more than a week after Halloween! We've been giving it away left and right trying to get rid of it, then came home with more bags last night!

All our kids adore Bella's big sister, Caitlyn. Here she is holding Owen.
Molly and Kellen.
Owen even had a friend from his school come to this festival, because her big brothers go to Kellen's school, too. Owen and Emma go to pre-school together, and her Mom was Kellen's Kindergarten teacher.
Let the games begin! The kids circled the school several times visiting all the games in the various classrooms.

Looks like a great time! Kellen looks like she is recovering just fine.

Why didn't they have this fun stuff at my school when I was a kid? Not fair! By the way, you are the best cook in the world! Tell Brian that the steak was divine! Oh, and I desperately need your green bean recipe. I made myself sick on the trifle too. You never disappoint! Thank you so much!
