Cake Walking at the May Fair

Tonight was the May Fair at my daughter's elementary school. This is a much anticipated event complete with games, prizes, junk food, raffles and best of all, a cake walk! We ran to the room where the cake walk was being held so we could get right in on the action. And the very first round, Nicole won! She had the pick of all the cakes, and selected a delectable home made confection with fresh strawberries on top.

And then we won four more times and gave two of the cakes away. One friend ran out of tickets trying to win a HS Musical cake, and another lost out on a cake when one of the other participants wasn't on a number and the first kid (Nick) graciously gave up his spot when the other kid wouldn't budge. And wouldn't you know it was the winning number for that round! So the next time I won, I gave Nick the cake. And it was his birthday besides!

We went home with four cakes; and tomorrow is Nicole's birthday, so we are all set!

Then there were the teacher raffles, and both girls won! How often does that happen? And they were both movie related raffle baskets.

I think I had the most fun of anyone doing the Cake Walk. It was a great way to spend an evening.
