Mmm….Ribfest!

Mommy loves herself some ribs so last weekend Hannah and I went to a local small town and enjoyed their Ribfest…twice!  Mmm, mmm! 

Friday night we met our wonderful friends Auntie K, Uncle J, Chick and PeaIMG_0395Hannah and I both love to hang with these very special peeps so as soon as she knew we were on our way to see them she said their names over and over…and over again.  She’s at the parroting age and when she likes the sound of something she says – watch out!  She’ll repeat it over and over again.  Sometimes it’s helpful as it helps me figure out what she’s saying and other times, oh my!

The weather threatened rain but we didn’t let that dampen our fun and we had a great time!  The kiddos were our top priority so we made sure they were happily munching away first.  We bought corn-on-the-cob and French fries for the kiddos.

Once the kiddos were taken care of it was time for Uncle J and I to enjoy some good ole BBQ ribs!  (Auntie K prefers veggies over meat but she did humour us and at least hold a rib. ;o)

We introduced the kids to the wonderful world of funnel cakes for dessert and they enjoyed every sugary morsel that came their way!

I treated myself to a deep fried Snickers bar and it was a decadent treat! 

After supper we wandered the grounds enjoying a variety of fun activities!

On oh yes….the dancing!

This picture makes me giggle.  Hannah and Pea were mesmerized by this line of boxes that people kept walking in and out of.  Heh!IMG_0399

Hannah couldn’t get to the local pizza mascot fast enough.  Based on this pic I think she’ll do just fine when we go to Disney in August.IMG_0398

Our final stop of the evening was a fun time at the park.

Thanks for the super fun time at Ribfest Auntie K and family!  We think this would be a great event to make an annual tradition!

Saturday night Hannah and I returned to Ribfest, this time with my parents and niece Bec Bec.  IMG_0440There were many different vendors selling their ribs so it was great to be able to try a different one.  Friday’s were ok but Saturdays were mmm…mmm good and we also enjoyed sides of creamy coleslaw and baked beans.

After supper there was more balance beam walking IMG_0442

plus Hannah’s first roller coaster ride!IMG_0455

My adrenaline loving little girl had a blast on the roller coaster and as soon as the ride came to an end she was asking to ride again!  It was fun that it was a Chinese Dragon coaster.

Life is a whole new world of wonderful adventures with Hannah by my side!!  I can’t wait to see what we do next!
