Suwanee Days Festival and New Pillow

Hello everyone!

Well, our desk top computer is working for the moment.  It's an intermittent problem, so I'm not sure how long it will work for me, but for now I'm happy!  I was just relieved to be able to get the Share Your Style party up and running.  No one wants to miss a party do they?!

Last weekend, I went to a couple of fun festivals.  This time I'm sharing pics from one that is right across from my husband's fire station in Suwanee GA.  We actually parked there and walked right across the street!  Most people had to park far away and be shuttled in on a bus.  Guess this was a perk of him working and helping people in that community.  

Even though this was a "Fall" festival, it felt more like a "summer" festival.  It was hot!  The temps were in the low 90's.  

When we first walked up, this is what we saw.  And the smell of all the good food was intense.  We ate some lunch and then walked around to see the sights.

We came upon this trailer containing snakes and other reptiles.  Hmmmm........

We decided not to look in there.

But there was this guy standing outside holding a baby alligator for people to pet.  That wasn't much my style, but there WERE plenty of soft furry animals of the canine variety all around us.  Everyone decided to bring their dog that day.  I thought it was too crowded and hot for us to bring ours.

It was so hot that kids were running around in the fountains that were outside.

There was even a shady area for kids to draw with chalk paint.

There was an art sculpture placed in the park that was a tribute to 9/11.  

It was sitting on a clock with the various times marked of what happened that day.

Here is an actual piece of the tower that came down.

There were several concerts and dance performances going on as well.

We did a little bit of shopping as well.  There were plenty of vendors set up selling hand made items.  

One booth was selling bundles of lavender for just $5!  

I also really liked this cotton wreath.  

I found something in a booth that I placed on my sofa.

It's this handmade pillow with the script writing on it.

I have been making lots of changes around my house lately too.  I moved some furniture around in the family room and sitting room.  I've also done a little bit of Fall decorating.  I don't ever do much in the Fall though.  So, I will be sure to share more with you in my future posts.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that our computer will continue to work properly or that we can get it fixed quickly.  I was holding my breath the entire time I worked on this post.  Sometimes, it will just freeze up on me and not let me do anything!  

Hope you all have a great weekend.

Thanks for stopping by.
