BIRTHDAY BASH: PART I

RochesterFest lands during the weekend of JP's birthday ... my sweet little boy seems to think that the entire city is helping him celebrate his birthday!  Grandpa A and Grandma K came down on Friday to attend the Big Parade with us.  Although we arrived just in time for the start, my kids wiggled their way through the crowd and scored a pretty sweet curb spot.  

The old fashioned cars and candy seemed to be JP's favorite; the marching bands with the flag girls were AA's (she needed to be pulled back constantly!).

Each year we've been able to stay at the parade longer and longer ... this year it was over an hour! 

On Saturday morning we went on a tour of a Dairy Farm as part of the Festival.  JP was thrilled to see all of the giant tractors and combines ... and AA loved looking at the horses and cows.

 (okay, Grandpa A and A had just as good of a time!)

 (and Grandma K and I tried to have fun!)

Great start to a fun birthday weekend!
