Festival of Colors

Yep, this happened over a month ago, 

but I couldn't help but blog about it!

I emptied my camera the other day and 

forgot all about these pictures. It may be a picture overload,

and that's just fine! 

For as long as I can remember, 

I have wanted to go to the Festival of Colors.

Me and Nick had scheduled it on our calendars

and made it a priority to go.

We invited my sister Emily, who also has wanted to go

for a really long time, but she insisted on 

bringing her two little girls, Brooklyn and Mylee.

Brooklyn is 4, and Mylee is 3.

I thought it would be quite a hassle having kids there,

but they ended up being the life of the party. 

Emily's friend Lindsey wanted to come and bring her kids too.

Bentley is 5 and bower is 3. 

They had a BLAST!! 

Anyone who had even one bit of clothing that hadn't been chalked yet,

they were there to fix it! They threw chalk on EVERYONE!!

(as you can see in this picture) 

They didn't care if they were strangers or not.

It was so funny! 

The kids were more covered in chalk than a lot of older people there.

We had to make sure that they closed their mouths and their eyes

so it wouldn't hurt them. So whenever they'd throw it at people, 

they'd say "Close your mouths and eyes!!" 

Nobody could get mad at them because they were kids!

And who would go to a festival of colors and try to stay clean?! 

So the kids went at it and enjoyed every second of it.

There was some water in one of the corners.

Everyone, except these kids, know that water and chalk doesn't go well together. 

It started clumping in their hair, on their faces, clothes. EVERYWHERE!!

It was especially funny to see it on Bowers face from his snot and tears. 

It honestly looked like a fungus was growing on his face. Haha.

If you ever question bringing your kids to the festival,

don't think twice!! BRING THEM!! 

It's a party for all!! :)
