The One and Only Mullet Festival!

The weekend we've been looking forward to since we found out we were moving to Niceville finally arrived. It was time for us to experience the one and only Boggy Bayou Mullet Festival. Sadly, the Festival celebrates the fish and not the hairstyle, but it was fun nonetheless.

Jack and Kate on the "midway", if you will.
Kate dressed the part by wearing the most classy of maternity t-shirts (a TDY gift from Kevin). A definite highlight of the day was Kevin and Jack's ride on a VERY big blow up slide. Please enjoy the action photos and notice how the look on Jack's face changes. He goes from very excited to not so sure to scared out of his mind. We did some fine dining, but did not partake in any of the Festival specialties.
The performer on Sunday evening was country singer Sara Evans. Jack danced to a few songs before we went home.

If any of you are planning to visit, you should clearly plan your visit around next year's Mullet Festival. It is not to be missed.

LOVE the slide photos. Your new camera is great. What did he say after he got off the slide? Did you try the shark kabobs? Yuck.

I am so bummed that the mullet festival isnt actually about the hair! Oh well, it still looks like a lot of fun. I love that kind of stuff. Jack also just keeps getting cuter!

What a classy town you live in! I'm really disappointed that you didn't dine on any of the local cuisine! You guys all look darling.

1) Jack leaves his hat on, that's impressive!
2) I would like to borrow that KNOCKED UP t-shirt one day, it's awesome.
3) I love his socks, they make the whole outfit.
4) You totally should have tried some gator or shark... or a deep fried Snickers, at least.
5) Your new camera takes awesome action shots.
6) His facial expressions on the slide are priceless, and his legs are pretty funny too.
