Creekside Festival

Today Jordan, Oreo, and I went to the Creekside Festival at the Princess Preserves. ( If you'd like to check out the preserves go to www.flaglerparks.com/princess/preserve.htm )
We had a very lovely day -- yes, lovely. Jordan, Oreo, and I arrived around 1:30 to find Tshombe (because we knew he hadn't had lunch and wanted to get him something.) And to our surprise, he had already packed up the Belk booth and spent the rest of the afternoon walking around with us.


Yes, we filled-up daddy's tummy!!! ( and his hand? he injured it in a softball game last Tuesday-- has he been to the doctor ??? nope -- "I'm a man!" - ....so does this mean men don't break bones ?? -- some things, I'll never understand !!!!)




Here's our church booth -- they handed out free bottles of water and free face painting to everyone who wanted one or both !!




Here's part of the mid-way for the festival -- all sorts of venders and a "deep-south" atmosphere -- look at the trees!!




Authentic campsites and tee-pees from "back in the day" !!





This year's music was "blue grass" -- I'm not usually a fan -- but they really did it justice !!




Jordan picked out a pumpkin ..... and got to paint it !!






We walked down by the "preserves" and enjoyed the breeze as a banjo and fiddle player did an impromptu rendetion of "Good Ole Rocky Top" on the front porch of the preserves. (Instantly, I thought of Tennessee !!)




Here's Jordi and some of her BFFs being "southern belles". (I've already emailed these pics to their parents and we're "all in favor" of not letting them date until they're 35 !! -- ha ha)
