Ode to the Potato

huh?! Our town's festival is called Potato Days and is quite the big deal around these parts. It is so much fun! We didn't get to partake in as many events as we did last year due to being on Makenna's schedule and not her on ours;) Completely fine! We still loaded ourselves with lefse and mashed potatoes and all sorts of yummy carbs! Plus I had to throw in mini-donuts for good measure! Lance ran the 10K and did really well...especially for only training for 10 days....I know, he sucks! He was sore yesterday and a little today too but he came in 6 or 7! So proud of him!! There's a Miss Tator Tot contest that is for young girls., They are so cute and excited to be in it. (Anna looked SO cute in her blue dress, Gina!) I'm sure M will want to be in it too when she's old enough. So it was a great weekend...tiring but so fun!

Today I'm off to the dentist @ noon, going to try to squeeze in a ride on my horse then off to a birthday party. Somewhere in there I need to fit in a shower and some house cleaning. We have plans every weekend now until October plus a lot of other stuff/changes in the works. It was fun August but I love fall so See Ya!! Welcome Sept!!!!

Potato Days! Love it. Our town's festival does not have nearly such a fun name. Nor a Miss Tater Tot contest.

Thanks- I'm exhausted too. Missed the Birthday Party because of cranky kids.

That sounds like so much fun, I'm so ready to take LO out into the world and start showing him stuff, even if he is sleeping.
