Happy Halloween! Yesterday was such a super groovy day! Our school had a Halloween carnival and man did I ever have a dynamite time!
So yesterday, Kim and I were walking to school in our costumes. Since we were doing the carnival all day, we didn't even need books! She was dressed as Wonder Woman, and I was Minnie Mouse.
We were at the far end of the playground on the back side, when we ran into Danny. And guess who was with him? His cousin, Michael!
Michael was really happy to see me. He was all excited when he told me that his family drove in from San Diego last night to spend Halloween weekend with Danny's family! Far out! Even though it was a school carnival, other people in our area could come too, so I thought it was cool Michael was gonna get to hang out with us big kids and finally meet Velvet!
When we got to the carnival, there was all kinds of cool stuff to do! The rides were The Spook House, The Terror Track and The Pit. (The Pit was a kind of bouncy trampoline thing). And the games were the Pyramid Pitch, the Ring Toss, and the Apple Bob. There was even a Fortune Teller machine. And guess what? Even Kerry was there! The High School was closed today for a teacher's meeting, so Kerry got to work the Snack Bar! This entry is gonna have a lot of snapshots, so you can see all the fun we had! Check it out!

Wow, what a great day! I had so much fun going on the rides and playing games and eating all the goodies! I was so tired when I came home at 3:30, that I conked in my room and didn't wake up until dinner time! I think this has been the grooviest Halloween ever! And it's not even over yet! Tonight I go Trick-or-Treating! I hope Halloween is just as much fun for you kids in the future. I'm gonna remember that carnival for the rest of my life!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
Until next time, future readers,
Your friend,

Looks like an awesome carnival! That was one creepy looking fortune teller, did you like what it said? Happy Halloween!
ReplyDelete*giggle* All I got for my penny was "You will have a great time at today's carnival". Well, it was right, anyway!
DeleteLooks like you had lots of fun. We just got home from trick or treating, and we got a lot of candy. Love your costume. I was Minnie Mouse when I was little.

Yep, we had a ball! I love Minnie Mouse!
DeleteMe too. I haven't been to Disney World in a long time.

Happy Halloween, Julie! The carnival looks like it was a lot of fun. And I'm really glad Michael was able to come.
ReplyDeleteI also love your costume! What a great idea to be Minnie Mouse! And how was trick or treating? I hope you got a lot of candy. What's your favorite kind? (Mine is Kit Kat-do you have those in the 70s?)
And also, did you go trick-or-treating with any of your friends? I went with my cousins, sister, and a family friend. And oh, I can't believe I forgot to tell you this before--I was a cowgirl. :)

Hi Sunny!
DeleteThe carnival was so much fun! Michael and his parents left for San Diego this morning. I think he may be back for Christmas. I had fun trick-or-treating and I did get loads of candy! I really like Nestle's Crunch bars. Yes we have Kit-Kats in the 70s and they're good too. I went with Bridget, Kim, Stephanie, Melody and Shante'. But we usually meet us with all the other kids and just go around to all the houses together. Jason told me that Danny and Kyle spent Halloween night at his house and they all stayed up late watching spooky movies on television. I bet that none of them has any candy left! *giggle*
Wow what a fun carnival! I remember those plastic costumes with a mask!
ReplyDeleteOh, people in the future don't wear these? That's too bad...I love going to Woolworth's during Halloween and looking at all the costumes. You can pretty much be anything you want.
DeleteGreat carnival. We had fun trick or treating around the neighborhood. They really discourage masks no because of visibility and breathing issues. Kaya wore a mask that went over her eyes.
ReplyDeleteNo masks? Well, I guess you could make up your face like a clown or something...but how could you be all the cool characters without masks?
