Denver Festival June 5, 2009

Going to the Denver Festival was fun. This was our first time as a family going to a festival;besides looking for parking for an hour, we had a blast. First we took the girls to a tent where they made kiddie hats. The girls really liked that. They put all sorts of shinny beads, pearls, and fuzzy balls on their hats, while Ahmad went to another tent and planted a flower. After the girls found out that Ahmad was planting himself a flower, they too wanted to do one. So Austin and I went with the girls to the flower tent, and helped them plant a flower. They were so excited. Tymesha was especially proud of herself for planting a flower on her own. Next we went to take pictures over at another tent. You know those fun wanted posters that they always have at carnivals and festivals, that families always want to take a picture of? Well that's what we did. But these ones were for individuals, not the whole family. But it was still fun. We were suppose to put only our heads in the cutout circle of the wanted poster, so it would look like our face matched the poster, well Tymesha did not do that the first time around. She put her whole head through the hole. It was funny. Finally, Austin and I were beginning to get tired, so we took the kids to a stand were they sell cotton candy and such and got them some treats. To me a festival is not a festival without cotton candy and funnel cake. Although I was not impressed with how much funnel cake has raised in cost, I just had to get one. We all shared it, it was fun; I got the powdered sugar everywhere. I know the kids had a fun time, because on the drive home the fell asleep within 10 minutes. This was one of the best summer activities we have had this year.
