Soul Food Festival

Saturday was a very busy, tiring, but interesting day as Amy, George, and I participated in the Green Cove Springs Soul Food Festival.  Amy decided that she wanted a booth at the festival to sell some of the jewelry that she and Alison have worked together to raise a little extra money.  The night before the festival, we found out we needed a canopy tent, so we had to fast and furiously get one as well as put together the stands we needed to hold the jewelry.
Getting the booth set up.
George worked so hard putting all the little pegs in to hang the jewelry on.


The finished booth.  We thought it looked great!
Jeff brought the kids over for a little while to enjoy the festivities.
Lola modeled one of the bracelets.

The boys got an icee . . .
this picture doesn't do justice to the color of Isaac's mouth when he finished!


We were exhausted at the end of the day.  (We had been there from 10:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.)  Our heads are still ringing from the extremely loud rap music that was playing all day long, but we had a really fun time and met so many nice people.

Laura, how do we seem to get pulled into every idea our kids come up with to keep busy, productive and happy. I just smiled reading this post because I know we come from the same mold. Kudos to you and George for the love and support you give your wonderful family!

Amy and Laura,
That booth certainly looks nice--like you had done it several times!!! Lola is just darling, by the way!
