The Colorado Adventure

We went by the Cherry blossom festival today.

Hannah was so excited when she heared we were going to a “vegetable.” “They have egg toss there?” she queried. No, that was just at the Mike fest, because Mike was a chicken. Eggs have nothing to do with cherries. (I think she really liked that egg toss!)

They girls made dragon lanterns and we watched the dancers from the temple dance school. (It was really red under that red tent!)

We wandered around and looked at shirts and origami, bonsai trees and kimonos. Here is Grace being Hello kitty.

I think Hannah is supposed to be the middle of a sushi roll.

We went into the market and walked past fresh fish, rice rolls, gifts and noodles galore. Back outside Joel bought a snow cone to share (they’re huge.)

We looked over the carved seal stamps and calligraphy and then headed out.

We missed the musicians, but we saw a lady playing some of the instruments that they had there at the library one time. It was cloudy at first and nice and cool, but the sun peeked out and it started to heat up. I think I may have to go back to the market, they had an umbrella for Hannah and a whale noodle bowl for Grace (plus origami paper for Joel and notepads for Bethany.)

It’s going on tomorrow too, if you’re in town and have nothing to do!
