Every summer Evansville holds has a Freedom Festival, I guess this year it was held by the Shriners. This is the first year that we have gone so I am not sure if it for the Shriners every year.
The festival was held right downtown by the river. It was a pretty hot and humid day, and of course we went in the afternoon when it was the hottest part of the day. The boys did pretty good with the heat, Eric had seen they would have jumbo corn dogs. These boys love corn dogs and really only get them a few times a year, so it was a pretty special treat for them.
We were all wondering how "jumbo" the corn dogs were going to be. I will have to say they were pretty jumbo! The boys were very impressed as well as excited to try them out. I was actually amazed how much of the them they both ate. Thomas has all but a bite or two that Daddy finished off and Thomas said that his tummy was "way full!" Sup probably ate 3/4 of it and again Daddy finished off the rest.
While we were there they also had an air show, with I think about eight planes. Because it was so warm we tried to find a place in the shade that we could sit and watch the show. Which is why the boys look like they are sitting in the bushes. It was really nice because they had the Red Cross there with lots of ice cold water that you could help yourself too and not have to pay for it.
After a couple of hours and when the show was over we headed back to the car. We did have a nice time and for me forgetting the sunblock amazingly no one was sunburnt! The boys were pretty tuckered out by the time we made it to the car and were happy for the AC :)
My goodness those are huge corndogs. It looked almost as big as Sup! Pretty impressed that they ate so much. It has been a hot summer so glad they had water for free! That helps with the heat!
