Today was the Westside Summer Festival in Lansing. The festival had live music, kids games, give aways, and loads of fun. We wanted to attend so we could watch little D's kindergarten teacher sing in her band called "Summer of Sol". First, we got our faces painted, visited the health tent, and did a bike rodeo. Then, we headed to the stage to hear "Summer of Sol" play. Little D's teacher has a really awesome jazz band. Little C and I danced the afternoon away while little D and big D sat and enjoyed the music.
Good Times,
Big C
