Fun and Cheap Entertainment for the Family

Tonight was our church’s fall festival. It was a blast!!!
During this time of year, many churches and schools have fall festivals, carnivals, and other sorts of similar entertainment. My church had bands playing and singing, hay rides, an inflatable bounce house and slide, smoked barbeque (yummy!) and other sorts of stuff. Everyone that I saw was having a great time . . . and it was CHEAP!!!!
Most churches and schools that host fall festivals do not charge for the entertainment. Usually, there is only a small charge for the food. I think it only cost $14 for our family of four. You can’t beat that for the entertainment.
This time of year some towns host festivals. Hendersonville, NC is famous for their annual apple festival. Their festival goes on for several days and attracts people from all over. I’ve heard of squash festivals, apple festivals, ramp festivals, and other strange things.
Keep your eyes and ears open for cheap entertainment in your area.
P.S. The picture is of my little girl on an inflatable at church. This was taken in June 2005. She wasn’t even 2 years old yet, but she sure did like the slide.


















Ruby loves the slide too!
