DC Trip- Saturday- Juner.

In addition, to my cute new Green dress, Miss Leah also surprised me with a new rain coat and hat.

I am ready for some mud puddles!

Luckily, there wasn't any rain this weekend and it was warm enough for just my birthday suit.

Miss Leah is great, but she doesn't have quite the same comic timing as Mister Josh. We played with me all weekend and was always a good sport when I would come crawling with my blankie or a hat for a good game of peak-a-boo. He even held me when I was eating a messy peanut butter sandwich (he complained, but we think he loved it).

On Saturday, we drove out to Leesburg, Virginia for the annual flower and garden festival. Don't be fooled by the name, it's a 10 block street fair. The best part was that Miss Leah's friend, Miss Maggie was there! You may remember that Miss Maggie also went with us to the Renassaince Festival last fall. She is super fun and we're just biding our time to give Miss Leah the slip and take Miss Maggie for our own. Her timing could not have been any beter, because she scopped up Henry and kept him occupied for the rest of the day.

While we didn't take any pictures of the actual fair, we did get a bunch of group shots. It was pretty warm and I was drinking LOTS of water, so my pants got wet (if you know what I mean), so I got to cool off and wear just my little dress.

There were tons of booths selling plants of course, but also great fair food. We partook in the fresh squeezed lemonade and sausages wrapped in pretzels. If it weren't so hot, we were going to hit up the fresh donut stand, but we had to pass. Luckily, when we recovered the stand selling dip mixes was there with free samples.

There was a music stage just for the kids and a courtyard filled with fun games. Inside the city hall, Henry spotted the performer and cornered him, demanding to know why he wasn't dancing.

Mama gave Henry the ultimate bribe and said if he was good for the whole festival, he could go into the train store! He was true to his promise and got to go in and look at the Coors Light Silver Bullet train and play with the Thomas set.

And after mama brought him back out, Miss Kathy took him right back in for more fun.

The real excitement of the festival, however came from a thrift store on the edge of the fair. True to the rest of Leesburg, it was a very nice shop. Mama was excited to get me a new outfit including bibs, an unstained white t-shirt, a white sweater and shoes for only $5. Then we was really excited to find that they were selling the model of double stroller she'd been pining for for only $27. She couldn't resist, so now we own 2 double strollers and have to decide which one we're going to sell on Craigslist.

When we thought the day couldn't get any better, we stopped at a Trader Joe's on the way home and stocked up for the second time in two weeks (we're so lucky). Then, these two worn out kids went straight to bed without fussing and didn't een bother to come out for the standard one hour past bedtime potty break. This left the adults plenty of time to eat goat cheese, sushi and pizza and watch movies. What a great day.
