KidsFest 2010

So Jackson had a big ole' KidsFest today at the Fairgrounds. With Mike being oncall this weekend at Vanderbilt, me and the girls thought we would check it out. It was actually pretty fun and cheap. Addison had a blast and we got a lot FREE stuff. Cant beat that!!

They had some characters going around taking pictures with the kiddos. Clifford the Big Red Dog, Scooby Doo, Dora the Explorer and some of the Disney Princesses...Addison was SO EXCITED when she saw the different princess...

SNOW WHITE
I thought Snow White did a marvelous job on her attire...cute make-up and hair...she went all out and it paid off (I thought)

Next is Belle...she could have done a little more to play her part..but at least she had the long brown hair like Belle does.

And finally...

Cinderella...I was quite annoyed with her really. I mean COME ON, first of all, you are wearing Glasses....really?? Glasses?? You couldnt for ONE day put your contacts in for the kiddos?? And second of all, I am sure you have seen the Movie before, and everybody knows that Cinderella wears her hair UP....she obviously didnt do her homework on Cinderella...oh well, Addison still thought she was neat, so she got away with it, but I am sure there were some other little girls out there who had to be a little disapointed.

Dora and Boots...she, by far had the best costume as you can tell.

Next came the petting zoo. Addison was having so much fun here. They were all in this cage together and we were able to go into the cage with all different animals scattering around you. Addie was having a blast! She showed no fear, she was going over and trying to pick the chickens up, petting the goats, llamas, and chasing the ducks around. It was great that they actually let you go into the cage to pet them, and not pet them through a fence.

This was Zoey at the KidsFest, thankfully she was a such a good baby the whole time...considering it was ONE of me, against TWO of them.

The last part was the BEST of all. I wish yall were there to share this moment with us, especially Mike. I have never seen Addison's face light up so bright before. They had pony rides...Addison probably went on it 3 - 4 times. She was having the TIME of her LIFE!! Addie has always had this fascination with horses....so this made her year I think....

I told her to say "yee-haw" and this is what she did while saying it.

This made me want to buy her, her very own pony.........not really. Okay, for a moment I did, but it will NEVER happen b/c there is NO way I am putting in the time, money, and effort of taking care of a horse...sorry sweetie, we will just have to stick with petting zoos and farms to ride "horseys". It made my day to see this little girl's face light up the way it did, though. We are glad we went...it was worth that 5 bucks admission to get into. Thanks Jackson's KidFest, we had fun!
