this past weekend we celebrated milk! it was the annual diary festival parade, hot air ballon rally, & ice cream freeze off. this coming weekend one young lady will be crowned the Dairy Festival Queen. it is a very small town event, but one of my favorite of the year. Saturday morning started with me running a 5K(my second one ever) I finished 3rd in my age group, and needless to say was proud of myself. Went home and packed up the family to head to the parade. there were….hot air balloons, tractors, floats and queens, big rigs, milk trucks, fire trucks,candy and a man on a potty….what?????
Lucy did not like the fire breathing hot air balloons. she was literally shaking-you could feel the heat and the sound was just too much for her to bear. quite a stressful moment in the parade.
we then went home and all got in the pool…..tried to escape the heat
that evening ryan watched michael anne {what a sweetie!} while i took lucy to the ballon rally. again she was terrified, hiding mehind my legs, but by the end had a great time! it really was quite magical…..i would say there were maybe 20-30 balloons and we were in the middle of them all being blown up. they looked like huge colorful pillows. oh…..and the potty wheelchair made an appearance again
