Wordless Wednesday: Life is Good

Some photos from the most awesome Life is Good two-day festival. We attended Sunday’s festivities.

Ahhh, Belly, you are so right. . .

Kids’ stage performers The Sippy Cups in all their wackiness.

I Am Not Your Broom! (it was hard to tell who was more excited to see They Might Be Giants: the kids or the adults).

Photobucket
Belly watching her first “rock” show, OK Go (great set, btw!)

Love these guys. And the kids too.

For once, Belly thinks my blog is cool: It gave us access to the very chill Chase Freedom Tent with airbrush tattoos, free candy and food.

Zoinks! The coolest balloon hat evah!

We also got to see Laurie Berkner and Dan Zanes perform, play tug-o-war (kids vs. adults–guess who won?), watch BMX bikes soar through the air, and make sure we exhausted the kids with lots of running around on top of a parachute.

Not a bad way to spend a Sunday, eh?

And I realize this isn’t exactly a “Wordless” Wednesday post, but it’s pretty good for me!

Bye Bye Baby


He still sneaks into my bed at night so that he doesn’t have to sleep alone.

He holds my hand when we walk.

And wants to be carried when he’s tired.

But he’s not a baby anymore. He can read. Dress himself.

He’s even lost his two front teeth.

And today he is six. My baby. My youngest.

Six!

If you think aliens came and took your sweet 9 year old away. ..

. . .and replaced him (or her) with some temperamental, moody, unpredictable (though still lovable) being: Read this.

Many thanks to my friend Lori for passing this on when she knew I really needed it. It makes me feel so much better knowing that I’m not the only one who has walked in these shoes before.
