A Perfect Day (or not, if you were Evie)

Back when I had a job, one of the things I did was to help plan a fundraiser called A Perfect Day for the school where I worked. I left far before things got really planned, but wanted to go on the day and support the school. In addition to wanting to be supportive, we also thought that Evie would be excited to be out and to see lots of people and balloons. Boy were we wrong.

She was not impressed with the Animal farm:

She did not find the chickens amusing in the least:


She certainly was not impressed with the Princess Party (neither was I when they asked the kids if they were going to spend some money and buy blinking tiaras):


Although she appears to be waving in this picture, she was merely pulling on her ear (which might have been hurting).


She definitely was not excited about her first merry-go-round ride.


After that, we took the hint and went home, where Evie napped and then was once again her happy self. Lesson learned.

(PS Despite Evie's rotten mood, it looked like the fundraiser was a great success. There were lots of people there and hopefully a lot of money was made!)
