Fiesta, Fiesta!

Once again it was Fiesta here in Ol’ San Antonio! It was a lot of fun we go to the King Williams Fair every year and we had another great time! We went to the Parade at 10 and I took my stretch and he always loves watching the parade! He got a lot of compliments on his Sombrero and people actually took pictures of him. My friend took one she has to hurry up and send it to me!! There were also lots of AWESOME vendors! Hopefully I will be able to participate in the event next year I just need more inventory!

Here is a little history:
1967, the King William Association was chartered as a non-profit corporation to preserve the oldest historic district in the state of Texas and to promote the unique cultural heritage of San Antonio. To further that mission, the Association hosted it first Fair in 1968. Since then, the Fair has grown from a one-block arts exhibit to a major Fiesta event. Through the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and thousands of Fair-goers, the Fair raises funds for arts, education, and community improvements.

Vincent me and Kirsten!

Cool Etsy Find

I found this really cool necklace! I loved Jem when I was a little girl, and I just recently found a very old VHS of Jem at the Thrift Store. This necklace is at Faster Than You on Etsy!

The Walk!

Here are some pictures of the Koman Walk it was a blast!! There were about 30,000 people there. We walked 3 miles in 1 hour and 19 minutes. Not too bad. My aunt participated in the run and she ran it in 30 minutes! Kudos to Aunt Julia. Not to mention our shirts were a hit! Everyone was asking where we got them and if they could even buy one!


after the walk we all headed to Taco Haven and a friend of mine made my mom the best cake ever!

After Taco's we all headed to Sanchez! What a fun day.
