Fiesta Weekend.

Well, it's that time of year! We just had the annual Apricot Fiesta and what a weekend!

Friday night was the Miss Patterson pageant. Miss Chelsea White won over the judges and was crowned in front of hundreds of people! Both Madison and Emily stayed up to watch it! Neither of them fussed and both went to bed at 11 pm! Can you believe that?

And here again with my Dad!

Saturday was the parade! My dad looked amazing as always! I love his fiesta outfits! Emily slept through the whole thing and Madison was in awe of everything coming down the street. Her favorites? The dancing horses and the "Princesses" as she called them! The rest of the afternoon was spent visiting with old friends, walking down the booths trying not to buy the place out and having yummy fiesta food! After the girls came home to take naps and cool off, we walked down for a bit longer than came home to get ready for fireworks. Emily went to bed, but I took Madison to one of the baseball fields to watch them. We brought out our blanket and it was a great way to spend Mommy-Daughter time!

Yeah...totally awesome! That's my Daddy!

Sunday was the community church service, which went very well. Then home for naps, and then one last trip around the booths before it was time to say good-bye to the fiesta yet again. As always, I am already looking forward to next year!
