My husband asked me this same question again this morning, as he has several times in the past. He means... why do I book a full schedule of events for one whole day. So, I will tell you what all we did and of course, why! I first started out with the Grand Bay watermelon festival. I grew up in Grand Bay, and it's a tradition to attend the festival. There we ate plenty of watermelon, searched all the booths for things of interest to buy, and had Braydon on every ride possible (train, pony, large jumpers) and even went in the petting zoo. Braydon had a great time and that means I accomplished my mission there! After leaving the festival, we loaded up back at the house and headed off for the lake. Here is where I took some selfish time for myself to soak up the sun lying by the water. Braydon and Lowell (hubby) splashed around in the fresh water for about two hours and I held on to peace while thinking of nothing but the sun! Again, mission accomplished. The day progresses with a cookout at mom and dads and then the we finished off the night with the fireworks show at the Grand Bay convalescent home. So, thinking back to him asking me why am I doing all this? It's tradition and it's fun for me, Braydon, and as he admits... himself too! Happy 4th of July to all...enjoy!
