What a great day it was!
Sun, Fun, Music, Bouncey House, Face Painting, Snow Cones, a Puppet Show, Balloon Animals, Fresh Vegetables, Grass Fed Meat, Fresh Baked Bread, Dog Adoptions, Fresh Flowers, All Natural Dog Treats, Home Made Soap, Locally Made Beer...and the list could go on and on! Did you miss it? We are so sorry! Because it was a B-L-A-S-T!!!

To be close to this house of fun, was an experience in pure delight! Laughter and giggles were the sounds that came forth from the walls! And not just snickers from young ones...some pictures were being snapped as folks with some years on them were bouncing and having the thrill of their child hood returned to them as their friends yelled encouraging words. It brought smiles to folks as they passed by...maybe as they wished for the courage to join in?
And did we mention how AWESOME the All Natural, Fresh Oven Baked Dog Treat Vendor is? (blush)...You needed to look quickly at their table, excuse me, our table, because the table didn't look like that at the end of the day...the treats did a magical disappearing act! As we like to say: they were adopted into great homes! ;)
And kids were thoroughly entertained with the Balloon Artist. This is an example of his Lady Bug. What you can't tell that makes this sweetie unique, is the little Bell that he places inside. She jingles when you move your wrist (he made her into a wrist corsage). We saw a butterfly, swords, tigers, giraffes, a fire breathing dragon, a dog on a leash that looked like he was being walked, and a crown. He was a-maz-ing! And he Volunteers for the Street Dog Foundation! A group of folks that rescues pups off the streets of Memphis, Fosters them, then receives applications to adopt the pups into good homes.
The entertainment couldn't be beat! From ensembles, vocals, Louisiana Blues...it kept the mood upbeat and folks tapping their feet! One of the highlights was a Puppet show which brought the little ones out to dance and sing! Smiles were in Full Bloom from everyone!
And this was my little bit of HAPPY...being in the booth next to these beauties. After the Winter we have experienced, the pop of color was just the ticket. You just can't have a bad day standing next to these gorgeous jewels.
