National Main Streets Conference

Last week Main Street Iowa hosted the National Main Streets Conference.  It was a crazy, fun week and they did an amazing job impressing the rest of the nation with their unique ideas!  Finnean and I "volunteered" at one of the events at the Iowa State Fair grounds.  It was so fun to meet so many of the people that I have heard Michael talk so much about and to hear all of them rave about how great Michael is at what he does.  We are so proud of you, Daddy!!
They even had mini funnel cakes!  It was so fun!

This boy is crazy!!!  He had so much fun playing and entertaining people!

It is not a fair without animals!  For some reason Finnean didn't want to pet them but thought they were pretty cool!

Best $13 we ever spent.  He loved to listen to the band...as long as he had these on! 
You may have noticed his shirt...we love Des Moines!

Turns out that all of my volunteer duties were given to others-so I just got to enjoy the event and make sure that Finnean was having a good time.  Tough job when you are the "Main Street Baby!"

Enjoying our funnel cake.  The night was amazingly beautiful!!

Heck Yes!

A little mini golf for our little golfer!  Check the courthouse in the background...someone made that out of wood!  It was awesome!! 

On Tuesday night, the event was held in Valley Junction.  My business was also participating in the street party as a vendor.  Finnean had a great time helping us set up and then he got to play with Abby and Cory...which is always fun!!

Getting some dinner with his friends.  It is such a wonderful feeling to know that so many people love him!

Finnean made a new buddy, Matthew (Kelcee's bro).  They had so much fun!!
