Bird Fest 2011

One of the most anticipated events of the year.

Only trumped by Christmas. And birthdays. And maybe a really fun week at the beach.

Even Emory asks when it’s time for Bird Fest, mama? throughout the year.

This year was even more fun with having two kiddos running around.

At first we stuck close to our tent.

Coloring…

And having a few beverages. In a Bird Fest koozie. Just like the grown ups.image

Watson shed his shoes to bust a move. As would any die hard Bird Fest attendee.image

We made sure and stop by to say ‘hello’ to Bird himself. IMG_9874

And this Bird Fest first-timer had a blast.

He even sported the same outfit his big brother wore to Bird Fest last year.IMG_9878As all of the kids get older, they have a blast playing together. Hazle brought her wagon, which she so kindly shared.IMG_9885

As Watson got tired and grumpy, we knew we could count on Alex to cheer him up. And give him a fro.image

And this one didn’t need any cheering up.  image

All too soon the sun began to set and the kids began to fade. Our time at Bird Fest was drawing to a close, which we were all sad about.IMG_9931IMG_9960

We packed up and headed home, but already anticipating Bird Fest 2012!!
