Tremont Turkey Festival!!

Kaleigh and Mommy got to spend the day together at the Tremont Turkey Festival. All four of us went last year, but decided we would wait to bring

Parker back when he gets older.

Kaleigh did several of the rides all by herself...and this was her first attempt,

however, Mommy ended up joining her on the merry-go-round!!

She went solo on the boats!!!

This was an activity course that she really wanted to do, but she

ended up getting stuck on the rope climb (pictured behind her)!

We sent for back-up and she was rescued by an older girl and made it safely

back to the ground!!!

She did love the bouncy air balloon and spent quite a bit of time in here!!!

At first she stayed close to the wall, but as more kids left, she became a little more brave and ventured into the middle!!!

We played several games at the Festival!

She had to go "fishing" for her prize at this stop!!!

She loved the cars, and so did the boy behind her!

He rode three times in a row before getting off!

Her favorite was the silver one with the pink seats!

She chose the caboose when riding on the train!!!
Jasmine, her prize from the fishing game, rode with her!!!

After all of our fun at the Festival, it was time for the Parade!

They started with Kaleigh's favorites, the horses!!!

Although Spongebob Squarepants and Cinderella were on the other

side of the road, Kaleigh wanted me to take their pictures!!!

No, this is not Sleeping Beauty...this is Kaleigh with Snow White!!!

All of Kaleigh's favorite characters were there...this is her giving Blue a hug!!!

And Scooby-Doo!!!

There were a lot of clowns giving out candy, Kaleigh liked this one especially,

because she was also blowing bubbles!!!

Kaleigh told me how beautiful she thought Belle was and so I had to get a picture of the two of them!!!

Several of the floats had bands performing, and Kaleigh started to dance!!!

As you can see, she was really getting into it!!!

She really loved the parade!!!

Our friends, Crystal and Patrick, were walking in the Parade for Pekin Hospital

where Crystal works! They spotted us, and came over to share their goodies with Kaleigh!!!

The Parade ended as it started...with Kaleigh's favorite...Horses!!!
