The Ham Festival

Yes folks, there is such a thing called The Ham Festival!  It happens every October here in Spring Hill, TN.  I decided to brave it alone with the boys today after Jake's soccer game.  If you know me, you know that I am not always up for braving these types of things without Jason along for the ride.  The memory of last years Ham Festival alone is reason enough not to want to go!  Jonah was a little over one year, and when he was not fussing to get in or out of the stroller he was fussing at everyone who looked his way!  He was quite a frustrated child a year ago.  I don't know where he would get that from!?!  Anyway, today we needed a change of pace so "Ham Festival" it was!  We actually had a ton of fun!  The boys loved riding the little train, jumping in the bounce house, playing games, and of course getting candy!  Jake especially enjoyed batting some (Jase just taught him how not too long ago), and I have to brag a little and say that he hit every single ball!  Maybe soccer is not the sport for him, but that is for another post!  Jonah loved feeding the puppet cow.  They both thought it was hilarious, and talked about it the rest of the day.  All in all it was a fun time with the kiddos even though daddy was not there.  We miss him a lot though.  We are heading into day 5 without him tomorrow so we are definitely looking forward to his return!  So, if you ever happen to be in the area the first weekend in October The Ham Festival may be for you!
