Reading Fest

So this week I heard on the radio that 97.1 was hosting this reading fest at the celeste center and kids were free and adults 5.00 a piece, it sounded interesting so I told Brad, lets check it out I think Emma will really like it because she loves books. It was so cool! We got there at 10 when it opened and wow, so much to do! Emma immediately went right for the inflatable jumpers. I think she could of stayed there all day, in this picture they had a portable library set up and different people reading stories all day, we heard this lady read and do a puppet show, we listened to andrea cambern read, and some of ronald mcdonald. When you arrived you got a book that a former OSU football player wrote and he was going to be there later in the afternoon to read it, but I knew we would not make it that long. It was well worth the trip and I plan on going next year, recommend it to all!
They also had face painting, I had no idea whether Emma would sit still or not, but she did great and had this pretty rose on her face, until we got home for naptime and then she started scratching it off, but it turned out pretty cute.

There were many characters there, Classic Pooh, Berenstein Bears, Clifford, Strawberry Shortcake. As you can tell Emma was unsure about these.. She would say Pooh, but then clung with all her might to mommy... UGH, makes me worry how she will do at Disney, but hopefully she will warm up.
