WinterFest...Both Wintery &...Festive

WinterFest was a fun event. Despite the 1'+ snow fall ending at 6 AM the day of, getting the car stuck in the snow at the end of our road and general snow related themes, there was an impressive turnout. Even a few of my good friends, Ms. Megan Pratola, Mama Pratola and Barbie Koester made it out to check out the event.

Here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure. My personal favorite part of the day was the pie auction! You heard me, pie auction. Gotta love fairs in Minnesota!
