Gettin' Dressed Up

Last night was the Harvest Festival at our church.  I was the lucky one who ran the Bounce Castle.  It's amazing to see how kids change as they get older as it relates to the Bounce Castle.  The little ones took their spot, bounced in a general area and most of them were ready to be done after their 5 minutes were up.  There was no going into each other's spaces.  No touching, unless there was a rouge bounce.  It's was all very controlled.

The older girls loved to bounce around, have contests on who can jump the highest and want to show you everything they can do.

The older boys should have some sort of accidental death and dismemberment insurance before entering the Bounce Castle. 

It's funny, in just a few short years those very nice, mannered, young boys who don't like to bounce in each other's space will be having WWF-like battles in the Bounce Castle arena. 

I was a little worried about last night.  We don't let the kids wear anything that is gory, etc.  E was mentioning how she wanted to be a princess vampire.  I'm not too keen on those types of costumes.  I know I sound hypocritical since I love the Twilight novels, but still...

I was elated when she showed up as a butterfly.  Zoe was Tinkerbell.  They were adorable.
