Saturday I went with three of my favorite friends to Louisville for the St. James Art Festival! Jayne, Laura, Kristen and I left Cincy bright and early at 8AM and headed for the ville! I have been through Louisville many, many times but it was my first real visit. It is a beautiful town and seems like a great place to live and raise a family.
It's funny how it's only an hour and a half SE of Cincy and many of the trees have not started changing colors yet. They are beautiful yellow, orange and reds here. I also noticed the southern accents - love them, miss them!! I don't really consider Cincy the north necessarily but it's definitely not the south. It's the midwest - the heart of America!
The St. James Festival is Ginormous. Seriously, it was so big I don't think we even saw all of it. There were all sorts of things from wooden crafts to photography to jewelry to VERY expensive paintings. I didn't by anything but we came upon this booth wit the most adorable baby girl bows. Oh my word, I was dying over them! They were SO cute! I almost bought them for baby girl Deepe's hope chest, ha, but I didn't.
We seriously had SO much fun. We laughed and giggled the whole day. It was so great to get away for a girls day. Thanks to our hubby's who watched the kiddos for the day so us moms could get away and have fun.
I love blogging and I read a lot of blogs. It's like it's own community and even though you haven't met a blogger, when you read about her family you feel like you know them. Sunday I found out a fellow blogger, Julee from TheTurnerChannel, lost her husband tragically in a car accident on Saturday night. You can read more here. My heart has been SO heavy for them and I cannot stop thinking about Julee, her 10 month old baby Preslee and her family. Please lift them all up in prayer!
