We were up at 7am this morning. It was all ready very humid and we were sweating like crazy. We got all the tables set up and the games out. Beth took Buster over to stay with Gabby around 9am. Dawn, Jo, and Rylee got here around 9:45am. Dawn car had some issues and she was able to coast it into the driveway. She called to have it picked up and taken to the dealership to be worked on. Jo and Rylee left around 10:30am as they were going to see Curious George. So the three of us got everything done outside and came inside to begin the food process. We started with the cotton candy first. As you can see from the photo, Beth had a great time making it. We had cotton candy threads all over the downstairs. We could not do it outside as the humid was to high. So after that mess, we moved on to making the slushy mix.We had conflicting instructions, so we followed the ones on the machine. Those turned out really well and were a big hit. So everyone started arriving and swimming was on every one's mind. The water was nice and refreshing. I got out of the pool around 3pm to start the oil for the fries and corn dogs. We tried everything we could , but could not get it to light. So we called the number they gave us for help and a guy came out to look at it. It took him 45 minutes and 2 phone calls, but he got it going. So we were a little behind on the food, but when it was ready, everyone enjoyed it. So after all the cooking, I was really hot, so into the pool I went. Around 6:30pm, I started the funnel cakes. They were OK, but I think the batter was to thick. Everyone started clearing out around 8pm. We did the clean up of most stuff, but will clean all the machines tomorrow. It was a great time and we enjoyed having everyone over.
