Cotton Days


Today I am reminded of some of the many reasons that I love living here in Washington.

The girls and I woke up, got dressed and were off to the park this morning. On our way, we set folding chairs out in front of Mike's Barber Shop. We grabbed breakfast at the park and came back to the Barber Shop to watch the Cotton Days Parade.
Small town parades and carnivals at the park still represent all that is right with the world. Sitting at the parade today, with the girls running into the street to get candy, I realized there aren't many things better in the whole world. Afterward, we went to the park, for face painting, snow cones, carnival games, and the BIG blow-up slide.

Moving here to Washington has been great! We definitely have a hometown here. The theme of this years Cotton Days was "Feels Like Home." And yes, it definitely, feels like home!
