The night before we were planning to go, Ezra was blowing on a wooden whistle we had gotten for him last time were at the Festival. Not expecting he'd know the answer, Ryan asked him, "Where did you get your whistle?" And to our amazement, Ezra said, "Festibal!" Then he started talking about everything else we did at the festival. "Mama and Ezra ride elephant", "Marcia and Dick" (our friends who work there), "Corn" (what he ate there)....I know it was only a month ago, but still that is 1/23 of his life ago!!...crazy how much kids remember!
Somehow it was mentioned that we were going to be going to the festival the following day. And, sadly this happened right before bedtime. Which meant we had a very excited little boy who was ready to go to the 'festibal' then, not in the morning. As we were cuddling in bed and talking about it, I told him that we had to wait until we woke up. To which he sat up and replied, "Awake! All done sleeping." Needless to say, he went to bed a little late and we had to wake him up the next day to get going.

And, the whole day was enjoyed with the company of good friends...
