Maple Park Fun Fest

It's been an interesting weekend so far.  I was supposed to be in the Maple Park Fun Fest today, but when I took my car in for a routine oil change yesterday, my brake fluid cap went missing.  This left me without a car over night and into today.  We finally were able to pick up my car, but after the set up time at Maple Park Fun Fest.  So if you were able to attend today, I'm sorry I wasn't there.  But I'm sure there were other crafter's and vendor's booths that were happy to see you.  

I will definitely be there tomorrow.  The trailer is packed and ready to go, I waterproofed the canopy today and I'm looking forward to having some fun.  

Come enjoy events for the whole family, including a car show and the Fire Department water challenge.  Then stay for a firework show.  See the schedule below.

I hope you can attend!

Scrapbook Expo & Hinckley German Fest

This is going to be a VERY busy weekend. 

I'm heading to the Scrapbook Expo in St. Charles on Friday, 8/22.  If your attending also, please let me know and we can set a time to meet up.  For more information: http://www.scrapbookexpo.com/CH-14/Home.asp

Then I'm having a crop at my house Friday night. This is a lot of fun, especially after The Scrapbook Expo. We talk about all the wonderful items we saw and show our goodies. You'd be surprised at the items that other people found and you missed. We still have room! Go to my meetup page to reserve a seat.

On Saturday, 8/23, and Sunday, 8/24, I will have a booth at German Fest in Hinckley, IL.  The fest will be located at Pioneer Park in Hinckley, IL.  This is my first time attending and it sounds like a lot of fun.  Parking and Fest entry is FREE.  They just ask for you to bring a non-perishable food item to donate to the food drive.  Check out their site at: https://sites.google.com/site/hinckleygermanfest/

Come on out to one of these wonderful events.  I hope to see you!

Sterling Quarter Mania Raffle Winner

Sorry Ladies, after the Sterling Quarter Mania, I went on vacation to celebrate our 10 Year Anniversary.  We had a great time in Wisconsin Dells.  I’ll post some pictures later.

Now that I’m back, I have to get back to even more fun stuff; which brings me to the $10 Raffle Winner!
