Prairie Fest Weekend!

Wednesday, June 22, 2016
Parenting has changed.  Here's proof.  This is a picture of our little town's summer festival 6 years ago:

Checking out the inside of a firetruck or ambulance in the "touch a truck" attraction - one that we don't even bother with anymore.

And here is a picture of Prairie Fest this year:
Me and some girlfriends hanging out with only rare sightings of our kids.
So the moral of the story is that my kids are getting big and it changes the complexion of events such as this.  There is so much coolness to this, but I also miss seeing them ride every ride, seeing one doze in a stroller and heading home for nap time.  Nap time rocks.  Let's just all admit this.

But Prairie Fest was a long, hot, packed, great weekend with its fair share of baseball thrown in.  Here are some pictures!

Some special people cheered on all the runners!

Sigh.  We love this weekend and are sad it's over, but look forward to more summer free time and special occasions on the horizon!
