strawberry festival

This year we went to the Strawberry festival in Floral City. We were not impressed. It was fair food and vendors. It was seriously CRAMMED with people. There are not rides at this one, so it was boring for the teenager. But, daddy was there, representing the USCG and that is why we went.
It was hot. The baby actually sweat out there. She did good though, she did not cry.


Here is daddy in his element. He is talking. That boy loves to talk. He was there to just answer questions about the coast guard and he loved it. The Number ONE question he got - Does the boat right itself? He said if he had to answer that one again he would scream. (In case your curious, the answer is NO. There are USCG boats that do, but not at his station.)
My pretty girls. We are sitting on the ground in what little bit of ground there is not covered with people. Yikes that place was packed.

Well I hope the teenager had at least a little fun. As for the hubby and his ability to run his mouth, I do believe that is a family trait that will never go away. LOL Give the girls some love from Germany. They both look great. We love y'all

we had that same experience when we went to the cranberry festival in jersey, so many vendors and people! although, i would recommend the blueberry festival! no rides, but definitely more blueberries! (not that i'm even a fan)

You'd think a strawberry festival would be fun, just for the strawberries! But, we went to the blackberry festival here in September, and it was crazy crowded too... So that makes it less fun :(. But I know it makes Jon feel loved and supported that you went :). And I love Shayla's bow... and her little messy mouth :). Sooo cute!
