Craft show…and a birthday…

I have got to tell you that Crosby is an awesome small town. The community events that are always going on are terrific. Today was Heritage days and there was not just the craft show, there was an old car show, snowmobile, airplane, fire trucks and so much more. The firemen were doing their stuff for a kids disease and there were mountain bike stuff and scuba diving stuff happening. The turn out was amazing and wonderful and the weather was beautiful (until tonight when a huge storm came through and tore up trees, wrecked my canopy and umbrella and I’m not to sure since it was dark I think my corn and sunflowers are hurting but anyways). Here’s a look at our set up and the show. I didn’t download what I made yet but will to share later on.

Wilbur came with us too and this is what he did most of the day between walks and visiting with everyone he could.

Our sale was good, not great but mind you our area is really depressed but we made about $120.00 and I made a little extra with my sewing creations. The people were wonderful and were having a great time. All in all a blessed day.

I went to a surprise birthday party last night for Kim. She turned 40 last week and we had an terrific time. Dancing and friends and music and a wine cooler or two. The perfect party.

The birthday girl and her hubby. Happy birthday Kim. I am so lucky to have you as my friend.

I hope you all had a great day. Tomorrow is shopping day and then I’m not positive, a relaxing afternoon would be awesome.
