Band Bingo

This evening, Evan, Payton and I played Bingo.  The high school marching band was hosting a Bingo night fundraiser that also included a silent auction and bake sale.  Evan and Payton could not wait to go play.  We had to wait for Daddy to get off of work before we could go, so we were a little late.  We made it just in time for the second game.  Daddy was going to take the little ladies to the park.  Addi and Karsyn decided that they really just wanted to go play in the back yard.  They made an evening out of playing on the swing set and then going out for ice cream.

The prizes for most of the games were $25 gift cards.  There were 3 games that were played on different game cards that had extra special prizes.  Evan and Payton played every round.  I played on the special rounds to try to win the big prizes.  Payton was one space away from winning a Kindle Fire. Ah!

Evan and Payton both loved that the elementary school Vice Principal was the Bingo Caller.  He ended up having the winning bid on a bake sale basket.  He gave each of the kiddos a honey bun and they loved that!

Evan and Payton got really close, but never won a game.  Once, Evan called out Bingo.  He didn't have one and got really embarrassed.  He has a good sense of humor, so we just laughed it off.

We had a whole lot of fun playing.  There was a great turnout and I'm glad that the band had so much support.  I hope that we'll be able to have another big kid bingo night soon.  =)
