Weekend Review

Yesterday was Georgetown Day, the town festival. Main Street is closed off and is taken over by booth from local shops, organizations and people selling stuff along with multiple bands, a chili cook-off, bingo and much more. Bethlehem has a booth every year where we sell bake sale goodies and raise money for local food pantries.

New this year was a lollipop tree hosted by the Sunday school to raise money to remodel the basement.  I was shocked how well the lollipop tree did but it was also because among the 250 suckers were 4 that were marked to win Silly Bandz.  (If you don't know what Silly Bandz are check out their Facebook page.)  Each sucker got a prize, but most were mark with temporary tattoos, stamps and squishy animals whose eyes pop out when you squeeze them.

By the end of the day we were getting a little silly - 11:30 til 7 is a LONG time!  So Victor, one the members of the congregation need a picture of the pastor, in her clerics, under the Budweiser sign.  (The church's booth was located across from the Lion Club's beer tent)

And the kids went and collected about every freebie they could get.

Oh and titled this post "Weekend Review" not that I have much else to add about the weekend, it was pretty boring - Friday hung around the house and went and finally saw Iron Man 2 and Saturday I spent most of the day working getting stuff ready for worship and Georgetown Day.  But Saturday night we did eat the first bounty of our garden - a fresh spinach salad made with some of the 6 plus quarts of spinach we harvested earlier that afternoon.

I can't wait to eat more from the garden!
