Fall Festival Pets On Parade

This is kind of a continuation from Monday's Post.
I wanted to share some other pics from the Fall Festival.
For the Pets On Parade Contest there is a Best Dressed catagory. Here are a few of the entrants.

The lady holding the Chihuahua had her dressed so cute in a little dress.
This little girl was the cutest!
Her Dachshound was in a Lobster costume and was in a big stock pot.
The girl wore an apron!
Too cute! She did win in that catagory.

Of course, there were lots and lots of food booths. Anything and everything deep fried! And I can atest it all tasted soo good!!
As you can see, we arrived early. 
After all, you can't start looking until
you've had a deep fried Twinkie for breakfast!

Show Off Monday ~ Fall Festival


I'm participating in "Show Off Monday" over at Etsy Cottage Style hosted by Marcela. Be sure to pop on over and see what all the bragging is about!



****

Our little town has a Fall Festival every Labor Day weekend. Everyone looks forward to it each year. There is lots of entertainemnt, contests, and just plain fun!


Some of the contests can get serious like the Salsa Making Contest  (our neighbors have won like 8 years straight!).
Some are just for fun like the Pets On Parade Contest.
There are several catagories you can enter.....Best Dressed Pet, Biggest Pet, Littlest Pet, Most Unique Pet, Pet Owner Look-a-Like, etc.  
Someone in our family usually enters one of our many pets.
 This year my youngest entered his Tarantula for most unique.  The Host didn't want to hold her, I wonder why?



 Although, she was a hit with the younger boys that were there!

And yes, He won First Place for most unique!! YAY!! Others in that catagory were a Hermit Crab, Turtle, Cricket, and Mouse.

Here he is with his brother. Pretty nice ribbon & plaque, huh?!
He was pretty proud and so was I....so here I am bragging about him!
