We went to Raleigh a few weeks ago for a street fair type event. It was pretty cool, different...but cool. People camped out all weekend to do chalk drawings up and down Fayetteville Street. I'm sure there was a "cause", we just never found out what it was :)
The above-right picture is a huge 3-sided chalkboard that said:
"Before I die I want to________________"
My personal favorite was "be a ninja!"
What would you put??????
This was such a fun craft that we copied it for Elli's birthday party. You get to paper plates and decorate the underside of them. You then fill one plate up with dried beans and rice and place the other plate on top. Then you just staple all the way around the plate and you've made your very own "shaker". We also added crepe paper streamers...super fun!
Next up was brunch at Beasley's...yummmmm!! And yes, I know it looks super unhealthy....and it was, but WOW was it good :) And then onto Pullen Park to ride the train, the mini-boats and the carousel. I LOVE Pullen Park, it's such an awesome place for kids (and parents)!!
And then we finished up the day with some ice cream at the Raleigh Farmer's Market. I love that place. We have so much fun every time we visit! All in all, it was a great day out to the "big city"...as Elli likes to call it :)
