A Weekend of Festivals

Saturday was gorgeous, so we went to my parents' house and went boating/swimming. After grilling out for dinner, Kate, my mom and I headed to the Lake Mills festival so she could go on some rides. On Sunday we went to Oregon for a parade that Rori was in, and then ate at Maria's Pizzeria (so good!!) Afterward, we went to the Oregon festival (I'm sensing a theme here...) and Kate had a blast going on rides with Rori and her friend Olivia. And Owen, of course, was so excited he could go on some rides himself!

 I deserve the good mom of the year award for going on this with Kate, especially since the guy initially forgot to unlock the swinging mechanism, so when we were at the top with the ride stopped so others could get on, Kate & I were hanging upside down, with our hands on the "ground" (ceiling, really, but we were upside down!) and practically hanging from our seatbelts. Not cool...
