One of the things the twins and I have done is go to the Clarksville, VA Lakefest where my mom lives. It's 3 days with the 3rd day full of vendors (they close of the street through town, yes the one street) and then fireworks. The first day of the festivities was free tethered balloon rides for kids. Unfortunately, the wind wasn't cooperating and it wasn't safe for the kids to get in the basket. And that was okay, we found out the kids were terrified of it anyway! They blew on of the balloons up and they were horrified by the noise. Oh well! We still got to check out a firetruck and get the kids' faces painted (well, Eli's arm!) before going home. Saturday we went and walked around and looked at all the vendors. There were hundreds of people there. Yummy food and the kids each got something handmade, Eli got a wooden tractor and wagon and Luci picked out a cute headband. Even though we all had bad colds it was still a fun weekend!
Flowers!
Thomas!
