National Tom Sawyer Days in Hannibal, MO
2nd Day and storms went through last night.
Just a little wind so everyone did okay.
Today my son should be driving in
from Ohio and join us for the 4th.
Lil Orchid is so excited.
"Hannibal's Got Talent"
We are gonna check out the Talent contest,
the age group is 0-17 yrs, and then 18 and older.
She loves to sing!!! And is super excited that tomorrow is the 4th.
Well, decided to enter her beause they told me
there was only about 20 in both categories.
WRONG. Before it was even her turn a really bad rain came and lasted throughout
the last of the competition. (I worried for my daughter, she was at the booth by herself)
So you could see part of the crowd and that girl won 1st for clogging.
Lil Orchid was last up and introduced herself then said she will sing "God Bless America"
because tomorrow is America's Birthday! The crowd just howled & hollared,
she sang and did an amazing job!
At the end the lady said she only had enough cash for three prizes but decided to
give out a special award to the little 5 yr old girl who knew it was America's Birthday tomorrow!
(So I say she got 4th, the other winners were all teens) most were aged 10 and up.
Later we trudged up the hill in the storm and a barracade hit me in the back when I stopped to Help Lil Orchid with her umbrella. Ouch!
Trying to stay dry and
dry out.
Everyone Loved our patriotic Tutu's.
