Last night the Jackson clan went to the St. Michael’s Festival. This was apparently an annual highlight back in the day when all the kids worked different stands; Joe, Scott and Brent all had fun memories from the lollipop tree. The highlights this year was, I think, different for all of us. Ellie and Addie loved the youngest Beatles Tribute Band, they danced to the music all night long. Their parents and grandparent loved seeing them enjoy themselves. I loved all the little small games. I managed to win an octopus for the kids by shooting a cork riffle, well Scott and I managed to win one together. Melissa’s favorite was of course the funnel cakes. For the Swedish readers who are not familiar with the St. Michaels Festival it is easy to explain what it is with two words: Skanninge Marknad (although a little more innocent, it is a church fundraiser after all.)
Right now we are getting ready for Breakfast. Jim is cooking up something delicious and we are just waiting for Su-Ann, Joe, Claudia and Jessica to get here and the feast will begin.
In other news it is raining for the first time in ages, which is actually very nice.
