At the end of September the town puts on Oktoberfest in conjunction with Germany’s real one. I won’t claim to know too much about it other than all the fun, music and beer but I imagine that there is some reason it is held in September. Anyways, It was raining and Brad was sick at home eating his chicken noodle soup but we made the best of it.
Bradley had fun climbing the rock wall and below Easton loved the bounce house and was flashing his crazy smile to the artist. He was saying “sssss” for the snake she was making him.
We ran into some friends and Gavin loves their little boy Parker. They did the Gladiator style jousting. It was all too heavy for Gavin to handle so he fell on his own and then got knocked out. Made for a hilarious picture and then he asked for some more, “bring it on” and then was so upset when their turn was over. Notice the pouting picture.
Also in the end of September my two dear friends Megan and Manda Panda as the kids call Amanda threw a baby shower for our other lovely cool friend, Becky or “Ducky.” Mentioned in plenty of blogs before. She is expecting her second child, a girl this go round. I tried to stay out of the shower and let my friends handle it. I love baby showers. I don’t know if it is just all the babies in the womb forcing me to be involved in them or if baby showers are really my thing or happy place. I just brought lots of hosting supplies for them and made a pretty sweet burlap banner for the first time. I had made paper and ribbon banners before but this was my first with burlap and paint. I also coordinated everyone making DIY hair bows for baby Jaguar. That is her name given by her brother Carter until the real name is to be revealed when she is born.
Becky is so happy and joyful all the time. I love her smile. It takes a lot to piss her off but I have seen it happen.
And this is ME, scoring all the tissue paper they were going to throw away. I pulled it all out of the trash bag and folded it.
My crazy friends!
Lastly, the new sweet baby girls modeling the hair bows for their friend Baby Jaguar.
We had lots of fun and a great end to a wonderful month. September.
