This past weekend was lovely- sunny and cool. The kind of weather that makes you want to go shopping! Well actually, any type of weather makes me want to go shopping, but at least this weather was good for being outside. And that's where most of the craft fairs were- yippee! Here is what we found waiting for us. Oh yes, there was at least a mile of traffic to get in, but it was so worth it....
Our first stop was at the funnel cake vendor. Jeff lives for these things! Oh yeah, they are gooooooood. Good thing we only get one once or twice a year.
Most crafters don't like people taking pictures of their booths, but I snuck my camera in just for you guys!:D
Isn't this guy darling?! But $86?? He's going nowhere- fast.
There was live music and the most wonderful smells of turkey legs, roasted corn, chocolate dipped cheesecake... We indulged in the turkey and corn, but by the time we got in line for the cheesecake, they were all sold out. I think I heard my thighs give a sigh of relief.
Look who was there, too! My friend, Jessica and her darling family! She's the one that told me about the corn.:D
This is the view from the bridge. Such a pretty place....
I fell asleep on the way home. Craft fairs, roasted corn and fresh air have that effect on me.:D
Hi Lori
ReplyDeleteThat Craft Fair looked amazing and well worth waiting in the queue for. I have heard of funnell cakes before and would love to try one someday. It looked to be in such a lovely setting near the river. I am jealous, I want to go there!
Thanks for sharing your lovely day out with your beautiful family.

ReplyDeleteIt was so great running into you!! That corn...oohh MAN! I told hubs I wanted to go back the next day JUST for the corn! But ugh that traffic. At one point Princess said, "Mom, I think we're going to be in this line forever." and I don't think she was too far off. haha...the thighs siging relief about the cheescake..bawhaha...I loved that line.
ReplyDeleteIt's Everything I thought it would be and more! I love that you took photos so we could see how great it was...Maybe just maybe I can make it next year~♥
