Saint Michael Daze and Knights

Today is the yearly festival in Saint Michael.  We decided to go to the parade and walked from our house which is about 2 miles.  Esme rode in the stroller for a good bit of it.  But she had such a great time at the parade.

This year, instead of a carnival, there was a bunch of huge blow up, jumpy things.  I'm talking HUGE! Of course, I didn't take pictures of all of them but one of them was like 3 stories tall!  Esme didn't play on that one.  

She did get brave and climb up a pretty big one though and go down the slide.  Going up...

 And up...

 And sliding down!

You try to take an action picture of a little girl going down a slide a hundred miles an hour!!! :)  Note to self: next time zoom out!

Finally she just went in the Jumpy House.

She had a super time and would have stayed there all day if we would have let her.  We just bought her a few tickets so she could do one or two of the inflatables, but next year we will definitely get her the wristband so she can do it as long as she wants.  

The bottom line is this, We LOVE Saint Michael!!!
