#81

81. Enjoy the funnel cakes, shopping, bands, children’s rides and more at the Spring Fling. IMG_1928

We went down to Spring Fling on Saturday morning and had a really good time. We barely made it out of the children’s area (Thanks Will!) but we did manage to get a funnel cake for lunch.

Sienna loved riding the train but  Kiran was scared of it. Kiran was not scared of the really tall slide however.

I think my favorite part of Spring Fling was that we kept running into people that we knew. We’ve lived here almost 3 years now but its just starting to really feel like home. Since our families are still in Greenville, we still spend a lot of time there. But walking around Spring Fling and running into people that we know from various places really made me feel at home here. I want to bloom where I’m planted and live in the present not the past or the future (something I’m guilty of doing all the time).

I do think that the City of Spartanburg should pay us for being a walking attraction. It is unbelievable the attention we get when we are out with all 4 kids. It doesn’t *usually* bother me unless they say something like “If I had twins I’d need a gun to shoot myself” (yes a fireman actually said that to me). Seriously? That’s the best thing you could think of to say in this situation?

I’m not usually a public displayer of affection but I really do love him. Count the kids. Three. He’s amazing. And mine.

Glad you're feeling at home there. I understand that sentiment! Did people recognize y'all from TV?

Our tv segment hadn't run yet when we were at Spring Fling. I haven't had anyone just run up to me and say they saw me on tv/in the newspaper but sometimes after I meet someone new they'll say oh yeah I saw your story....

Seriously, fireman? Seriously?

obviously that fireman needs a little more Christ in his life. Babies are blessings no matter how many you have. I think that God's plan to deliver your beautiful healthy children to you was one of the smartest things in the world. Kelley I admire you as a mother and think of yu often.
