The Blueberry Festival

This weekend we experienced "The Blueberry" as it is referred to here in Plymouth. This annual festival is quite the event. It is said that 1/2 million people pass through the small town of Plymouth during the Labor Day weekend. There are carnival rides, craft booths, food of any kind, games, tournaments...and so much more. The schools here in Plymouth take off the Friday before the weekend, which my boys were pumped about!

It was a beautiful weekend with lots of sunshine and not a lot of heat.

On Monday we attended the parade that strolls down Michigan St. About 100+ of our church family gathered in a family's front yard (also from our church). We ate breakfast and enjoyed the parade together. It was very surreal. I felt kinda like we were in a movie about 'small town America'!! My boys are already talking about next year!
