Annevar Celebrations Begin!!

This morning, I went to help make Lion Burger meat. (think sloppy joe but jazzed up) It finally hit me that Annevar is here yet again. This time last year, I was celebrating with my family from NC - We had Peck baptized. It also happened to be his half birthday :)

See him in his little Baptism outfit? So darn cute!

 

Ok. Proud mommy moment over. Back to Annevar. Annevar (Ravenna (the town I live in) spelled backwards) is our annual festival. We have carnival rides, contests, shows, mud drags, a parade and all sorts of good times. I really love how no matter how long you've been away, you always "come home" for Annevar.  I, nor my in-laws, are not originally from here. However, we have felt welcome since day 1. I got asked tons of times if we were putting Peck in the cute baby contest, so of course we did this afternoon. He didn't win (there was some pretty fierce competition!) but we had a blast and it was good to see him interact with other kids of all ages. 

Ready to get this thing started!

 I can't wait to see him getting candy and toys at the parade on Saturday. I hope he actually is OK with the carnival this year as well. (Let's just say things didn't go so smooth last year)

I am so happy that Annevar is here. I am also super excited that I will be home in just 2 short weeks! 

Until next time -
