River Rock Church Festival

We weren't sure what the weekend would hold for us. We had plans to visit Rob's Aunt Jackie, Uncle Lon and cousins up in Elk Rapids on Lake Michigan for Saturday but Friday pm Jacob started throwing up. He seemed a bit better by the next morning, but between not really knowing what was going on with him, and a big rainy storm front moving in for the day - we decided this may not be the year we get to visit. Sunday (today) was the church festival. Yesterday proved to be a good rebound day for Jacob and he seemed fine now. Rob had to be there early as he was participating in their grill-off competition, but I did not bring the kids until around 5pm. They had a great time! Big obstacle course inflatables, face painting, balloon animals from a clown, kiddie games, cake walk - I never made it down the hill to the food, drinks and grills the whole time! I did however get a work out from holding two brown bags of prizes and candies, 3 doggie bag containers of treats from the cake walk, 2 water bottles and a can of Sprite. My left arm is still cramped up a bit! :) (You can see why I have no pictures of the actual events!) We all made it home just before the next big storm front blew in and best of all - Rob won First Prize for his grilled chicken!!! The prize? Seventy-five dollar gift certificate to Herman's Boy!
