Oakdale Summer Fest

This past Friday we found ourselves unexpectedly in town and decided to check out Oakdale Summer Fest. It was awesome! And much bigger than I had thought it'd be. There were tons of carnival games, food, a giant playground, pony rides, a Beatles tribute band and lots of booths set up in Oakdale's very nice Richard Walton Park. A good time was had by all (Claire in pink ruffle shirt, Abby in pink princesses shirt and Lily in purple Tangled shirt)!
Pushes from Daddy are the best!


Crazy dancing


All copying Claire's funny face
The running-in-circles dance

Ready for ponies!






The walk back to the car with three tired girls (Yes, I knelt in the wet grass and it's a good look, I know).
In other news, we dressed up as princesses (or divas in Claire's case, above) today and went for a Princess Parade in the backyard.

The adorable princesses (Claire in pink as Sleeping Beauty, Abby in blue as a fairy and Lily as Rapunzel)
Claire and Abby have also enjoyed taking more pictures with my camera. Abby took the nice one of Claire, above. They also enjoy taking pictures of their pretty dresses...
... their daddy...
... their Dora cup...
... their toes...
... their toys...
... their sister's hands...
... their smiling faces...
... and their scary faces!
I think they may have a future as professional photographers (or scary face makers).

The parade was a good one but that Beatles tribute band would have been great too! and pony rides and the running around in a circle dance...I love that one!!! see you soon! happy 4th!
