Friday night fun with bellybuttons, bluegrass and base......

Ewee got home early in the afternoon and we went and ran a few errands.  He was very chatty and was asking questions about anything and everything under the sun.  You can never know what kind of conversations you are going to have with a 3 1/2 year old.  I'll spare you the details.....comical to say the least....

I packed us a picnic and we headed to the River walk for the Bluegrass Jamboree to celebrate Earth Day.  We got ourselves a spot, spread out the blanket and had ourselves some snacks.  There were lots of people there and Ewee was having a good time.  He started out staying on the blanket and sticking real close to me.

 

As more people came down, more children arrived and he began to test the boundaries...  Then he made some friends.  Next thing, he was running up and down the sidewalk, playing with some of the other kiddos and talking up a storm!!!  He was staying relatively close, glancing back at me every few minutes to make sure he could see me and to see if I was going to say anything about how far he was going.  Each time, it was a little bit further. 

 Ewee ran into this little boy and his momma was so happy that there was a kid there that he had not scared off.  He was a spry lil tyke.  He wanted to do everything that Ewee was doing.  They were really cute.  The little boy wanted to pull his shirt up and show Ewee his bellybutton.  Of course, he had to reciprocate....  They played for quite a while and it was time for his new friend to go...  Hugs.....

The last band of the night was great...  The sound system was not great, OK, but not great.  With the clouds rolling in, they said they were heading out into the crowd and for everyone to gather round.  Leave it up to Ewee to see the pretty lady with the "big git tar"....  He was drawn like a moth to a flame....  She asked him if he wanted to play it and he couldn't help himself; he was in awe!!!! 

Had a great night, good food, good friends, and some fine, live, up close and personal bluegrass music.  Tired little boy meant and easy night for bath and bedtime.  Got a big day tomorrow......

Love,
