Sunday Fun Day

Today was great. It truly was. With the parade, the coronation, Cheeses Booth's pretzels, cotton candy, running into old friends... all of it, it was just great... 

 

Here are the pix... some from the parade and some just random hanging out pix =)

So this is like a "remake" pic.. We did this at FedEx Field too...

Here's the original =)

(Except it's in reverse :P)

Mmmmk...

I think that's it for tonight. Have fun at the retreat you guys!!

(BTW I am so jealous. I soo want to go to the retreat!!!!)

Today was entry day for 4Her's entering veggies, fruits, flowers and baked goods... I volunteered to help the judges put on ribbons and get everything all nice and organized. And afterwards, they gave all of us a free dinner from all the stuff the kiddos entered... (excluding prize winning cakes and pies, and the desserts that went to the bake sale.) There was so much yummy food, and a ton of 'questionable' food. I definitely was not brave enough to test some of the entries.. yeah...

So after I got some hours in, I found the gang and we walked around, and then hopped on the trolly.. and then got kicked off the trolly because we were just riding it. That was fun. We got off at the Mid-Way, Josh and Em got a funnel cake with lots of powered sugar (the only way to go) and then we headed back up to the barns. Yeah, now that I type it out I realize that you kinda had to be there to experience the awesomeness of just hanging out.. But anyhow, here are some pix of like the last 10 min of our evening.

(Here's a plug for the Flowerhill Strings, they are going to be playing again on Monday at 11 am, come and see Anna Somerville, Chris Perdue, Mrs. Barker, Corey Simmons, Mr. Flowers and a few other people of whom i don't know their names play at the Fair!! If you like bluegrass, you should totally come hear them play!!) - I forgot to mention that they played this evening, and were super... and if you didn't get to see them, you should later in the week... 

Long Live the Fair!!!

Last night was the first night of the fair. It was only pre-fair, but hey, it's the fair all the same. I must say that last night was AWESOME! If you are planning on going, let me know, and we can hang out!! =)

p.s. Eating Ice Cream Parlor ice cream and belting Taylor Swift is

... well totally fun...

you must do it one day :P
