Children's Festival

We took Evie to the Mainline Children's Festival, an annual event at one of our partner churches. It is pretty much a pre-Halloween festival for the kiddies. Here are some pictures from the Festival.

When we arrived, there was a children's concert going on. Evie loved the music and singing! She and Tim were clapping their hands to the music.

Then we got ready for the Halloween Parade. All the kids in costumes were lining up.

The Halloween Parade was basically a short walk around the church with drummers and singers and people handing out candy along the way. We were at the front of the parade.

She seemed more interested in being outside and listening to the drumming than anything else.

Later on, Elmo arrived! But Evie was distracted by something else.

Tim was showing Evie the fire engine when I took a picture of her wingspan.

The festival was lots of fun and we wore her out. She ended up falling asleep during a very loud concert. When she woke up, we had dinner at a local farmers market and Tim and I had chicken dumplings, Thai tofu and Chinese veggies. She was supposed to be eating baby food, but after a taste of the Thai tofu, it was over. She refused to have anything but the Thai flavored tofu. She ate three cubes of it by herself! Of course, she knows what tastes best: Thai tofu is much better than baby creamed corn...
