Norfolk Children's Festival

Saturday was the Children's Festival in Norfolk. The four of us met Haley's family (also 4) and Addie and her mom, but they were really late. The weather was fantastic and we didn't have any major meltdowns! Sophia even relaxed a bit around the large costumed characters. Up until now she's been terrified of them. The Cat, from Alice in Wonderland, broke the ice for her. I think it was because he was sitting down. We also saw Clifford the Dog and Curious George walking around the festival. See all the pictures.

Sophia got her face painted like a cat. Haley got a pumpkin on her cheek. They ate ice cream - chocolate and vanilla twists with sprinkles on top. We paid extra so we could ride the train. Sophia LOVED the doll house area. (I think she needs a doll house for Christmas this year). She enjoyed dipping bubble sticks into buckets of suds.

Even Aubrey enjoyed the day spent outside.
