Hello everyone...
sorry i have been out of the loop.! I have been busy - this summer I got on the Walpole Village School Board - I went to the meeting thinking I am just going to go, maybe get on the board.....well I came home not only on the board but one of the co - fundraisers! So my friend Erinn and I - took on Spooktacula! We created a new fundraising event for the school. Erinn used to work for Kids help phone when she lived in Canada - it was a event they did and we thought it would be a good fit for Walpole! Erinn and I made a great team -Fundraising is busy work, but it all came together! Oct 27th was Spooktacula - the kids had a event during the day. The kids got to enjoy face painting, cookie decorating, caramel apple decorating, wand pairing (which I can tell you we made about 300 wands - but getting sticks, them painting them, then covering them with glitter and feathers), hay wagon rides and stories! It was fun to transform the preschool into a old village. At night we had Henna tattoos, Tarot card reader, Tombola (which is a British take on a raffle), cake walk, DJ and Costume contest. It was a great day and night - I wish that all of you lived closer so you could of came. So not only was I busy every Wednesday night and Sunday morning doing decor working - painting, wands, props ect....Erinn, Jordan, Simon and I decided to make our Halloween costumes - So during the day Erinn and I were Piggy and Elephant from the books by Mo Williams (if you don't know them they are great the kids love them) and at night we were hungry hippos. We made our hippo Costumes - work but so much fun . It was great, and thankfully I have a wonderful Simon that let me do all the work I needed to for Spooktacula :) And a big thanks to all the Gascoyne Family for helping me through....esp Shannon for coming and taking care of the kids for 2 days - thanks!
