Music and Molasses Festival

Last weekend we took Nana and Gramps to the Music and Molasses Festival held at the Agricultural Center located just down the road from us.  There were musical instruments that Piper played, animals she could pet, ponies to ride, and lots of crafts.  We had a great time!

Posing with one of the horses they used to make sorghum

Beating an OLD drum--I was terrified she was going to break it 

Dancing and drumming

Playing the washboard with Daddy

Playing the thumb piano

She didn't care too much about all the animals, but she HAD to sit on every hay bale she saw

Hey, goat! 

Petting a donkey 

More sitting on the hay bales 

Waiting patiently for a pony ride.  Thanks, Gramps!

Holding tightly to Gramps before the ponies started walking

Her pony's name was Hocus Pocus 

She really enjoyed it!

Big smiles!

She was an old pro at the end and didn't want Gramps to hold onto her.

She looks so grown up to me!

Graham hung out with me in his carrier and took in all the sights

Piper LOVED watching this man work his clay

She kept inching closer and closer 

She was practically in the wheel

We also celebrated my birthday with a cake all the way from Unique

I had help blowing out my candles :-)

We always love it when Nana and Gramps come to visit!
