Prom & Carnivals

This weekend has been quite busy for us even though we haven't done any traveling yet. When you live in a small town people ask you to do all kinds of things even if you haven't been there long. I guess there is no better way to get to know people than to dive right in.

Last night D was a chaperon for the after prom party. The party was from 1 a.m. to 4 a.m., but with setup and tear down he was there from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. Obviously he didn't get much sleep this morning. He definitely isn't used to keeping those kind of hours any more.

Tonight D had a booth to do outreach for work at an indoor carnival in a nearby town. This is a big event for the surrounding communities, and people come back to their home town for this event. B and I went along. B had fun playing games like bean bag toss, ring toss, bingo, plinko, and several others. It was also nice for me to get out in the community and meet some people. D knew a lot of the people we saw because almost everyone has to come through his office, but I haven't had the opportunity to meet all the people he has. I wish I had some pictures of B playing the games, but I didn't even think about taking the camera.

Tomorrow we will be traveling to J's parents for a day. Hopefully, D will be able to catch up on some much needed sleep. I feel like I could use some extra sleep as well.
