Good Weekend!

This past weekend was Kidfest down in our old hometown. Kidfest is when they transform the large building that the school plays basketball in into a kid’s heaven! There were jumping things, games, police cars, fire trucks, face painting, Scooby and many, many other things. Hubby and I have volunteered at it for years because it’s put on by the County’s Children’s Services, and my father-in-law was second in command there. This year was the first year that we went without volunteering, since father-in-law is now retired. He does still dress up like Ted D. Bear, so the pictures with the huge bear is Grandpa!

It was a great weekend, except that our stupid, piece of crap van broke again…the power steering went out. It happened on Sunday, on the way home from church so we headed over to Firestone since that’s the only place open on Sundays. However, they didn’t have anyone there that would know how to fix it. Huh?? Anyway, hubby ended up spending 6 hours underneath the thing and finally fixed it. Poor guy is all bruised now :( We didn’t end up getting home until 11:00 PM Sunday night, so I’m still feeling the effects of not enough sleep.

Here are some pictures from this weekend…enjoy!

Looks like fun. Sorry about the van. I thought your van was fairly new? Or, am I confusing you with another blog I read? Most likely...

Any grandpa who would put on a bear costume is a real gem!

Bummer about the van though.
