A couple of weekends ago, we made the short trip down to Kevin's home town for their annual Peanut Festival. It's kind of a big deal for the whole town,with coronation ceremonies, a parade, a carnival, street dances, etc. Since Kevin is a former festival king himself,we felt the time was right to introduce his heir to the festivities. The theme changes every year, and this festival's royalty was known as the 'Court of the Magical, Mystical Universe'. Not exactly sure what that has to do with peanuts, but it was fun time none the less. We went to Kevin's mom's work to view the parade on Saturday morning. August was pretty impressed with the cheerleaders, the bands, and the fire trucks, but wasn't so thrilled with everything else. Though later that night we would learn that he was on the verge of a 6 day stomach virus, so that could have played a part in his 'grumpiness'.
