It was epic.
It was fun, crazy, and extremely tiring, too.
But mostly epic...and fun...and crazy:)

We got ready.
And skyped with Winnie! That was so awesome!! =D
Then we loaded up the faithful, old Suburban to the absolute max...and then some.
It seats eight and we were eight, but two seats were filled up with stuff.
Yeah, that was one stuffed car.
On our way - our destination, Farragut State Park.
All car rides with us involve lots of singing and laughing.
When we've reached the 'point of no return' silliness level, Kellie and I sing this song...
Um, yes. That's what we sing, with terrible attempts at Hispanic accents.
Hehe - what can I say? Kellie and I have been best friends since she was 10 and I was 13. :)
Upon arrival, we unloaded the car, calmed down (sorta), and set up our photoshoot props.
We brought about twice as many as we needed, but better safe than sorry. Now we know for next time.
My brother's recently published children's book The Adventures of Rathdrum Willie and His Motor Car.
Stay tuned for more info and a giveaway later this month=)
And speaking of my brother...
The jury is still out on how Aubrey got into this predicament, but we sure enjoyed it:D
Beautiful Kellie...
Lovely Emily...
We brought a portable dressing room along with us which worked out splendidly...
But it took us at least 30 min. to get it folded up and put back in it's carrying case!
And no, we're not just dense - it's like one of the fold up car window shades...only worse.
We took a walk down to the lake after everything was packed back into the car.
On the way home, feeling happy and tired, we rolled the windows down, did some more singing, waved and shouted at passing bicyclists, and drove all the way around the traffic circle while yelling and laughing.
It's a beautiful, big traffic circle and there was no one there to see us, anyway;)
Yep, it was epic and fun and crazy, but mostly it was wonderful.
Happy Trails, y'all!
It looks like you guys had so much fun. I wish I could have been there.

Tasha~~You always do a wonderful virtual tour of events and I, for one, loved seeing all of the fun from beginning to end! The photo journey feels like I too am riding along in the car somewhere in the middle of all of the fun and excitement. It was an Epic Day from planning to execution but also an amazingly creative and beautiful Etsy Shop new line launch! Farragut State Park is one beautiful setting and perfect for the work you were doing! Thanks for sharing!

ReplyDeleteYour crocheted bunting is charming, m'dear. In fact, it's inspired me to make my own! :-D
How cool that your brother got something published! Looks like a fun book.
Here's something else you might enjoy at the "point of no return silliness" :

Tom - We do, indeed;)
ReplyDeleteThank you! Oh, I'd love to see your bunting when you've made it! I'm sure it will be just lovely:)
Yes! It is a very fun book and I'm so proud of my 'little' bro:D
LOL!! Now THERE'S a song!! ;D
It'll probably be a while before I even start on my bunting--need to finish Mom's afghan first! *Innocent whistle*
ReplyDeleteHee! Methought you'd like The Llama Song. We once knew a family who had it as their answering machine announcement--crazy! :-D
