The Weekends

I'm feeling better, though my chest burns when I cough and I get light-headed on a whim.  I'm thankful my kids are old enough to survive when I'm down.

Looking ahead, Paul's gone all day tomorrow and the boys are I are working the homeschool booth at a local Strawberry Festival.  Come give us your money and we'll let you toss a ping pong ball into a fish bowl.  You may even get to hear Steve Trent and Small Town.

Yep, I just checked.  They'll be there at 1:30 -
when we're there!

Sweet.

Then Sunday, we'll enjoy some more local talent when we go see Alice in Wonderland at the live theatre.  The girl around the corner is in it even.

Looking back, we went to the Asian Fest last weekend.  Pretty neat.  Pictures, please...

Lots of performers, one of my favorite entertainment forms.

Dancers from India

Children dancing from Vietnam

It rained off and on

and it was an outdoor stage.

Then to the food area for Filipino yumminess.

Pete and I shared a kabob

so I'm about to slide the meat off with my fork.

With my eyes closed, apparently.

Eating it off the stick is another option.

That's his Turkish soccer jersey.

Bummer they're not in the World Cup.

Although South Korea plays tomorrow morning.

Next, we went inside and made Indonesian Shadow Puppets.

Paul is using Peter's dragon puppet.

Reuben is holding up his crab.

The light shines on it and through the cellophane to the audience on the other side of the curtain.

I imagine that a professional show with Shadow Puppets would be pretty fantastic.

And the traditional

Sleeping On The Way Home From The City picture.
Fiercely gripping his balloon and propping his legs up on the seat in front of him.

Amazing.
