Friday evening was Pumpkin Bust which was an annual school event.  The kids had been looking forward to it and we had purchased tickets and T shirts ahead of time.  On Friday morning, Connor was saying that he wished he could skip the day to go straight to Pumpkin Bust.  He also had planned to wear his Kylo Ren costume to the event.  In the late afternoon, I got out of work early and on time, and we walked over shortly after the event was in full swing.  Logan tried many of the carnival games, but Connor was not interested.  Connor wanted to walk around to see if he could run into his teacher.  Later both Logan and Connor looked through the book sale and bought a few books.  Then we took a break to eat; the food truck line was too long, so we all had some pizza from the snack shack.  While we were eating, Connor saw the Star Wars costume actors arrive and he wanted to take pictures with them.  He was so careful putting on his mask and holding his lightsaber to stand in front of the big guys.  Next Connor saw his friend Neil who he was expecting to be in the same costume, so the two of them played together for a bit.  When we walked around so more, Connor changed his mind and wanted to decorate a pumpkin, so he and I worked on one while Logan with Stuart continued playing other games. 

     I had signed up to help out at the snack shack for an hour.  I had been sick for a few days, and fortunately I was feeling better and up for the job.  The snack shack was busy with kids/parents coming for drinks and snacks.  I was expecting that Stuart would take the boys home at some point since they were winding down, but periodically the boys still showed up to see me.  Logan actually wanted to go home as his legs were tired, but Connor wanted to stay.  Every now and then, Logan and Connor would come in to help me, and Connor was devoted to really help.  He was happy to stock up the drinks and help get tickets from clients.  During that hour, apparently both Logan and Connor’s names got called up from the raffle drawing and they both won a chocolate bar necklace.  Later they both came to me to buy a hot cocoa to drink.  Few minutes short before 8pm, when my duty was coming to the end, the sale was slowing down since the popcorn and cotton candy machines were taken away.  We all then walked home.  It was a fun evening for the kids.
