Strawberry Festival

I got home after midnight on Friday after spending a week in California. We had planned to go to the Strawberry Festival on Saturday but we had to get there early if we wanted to actually get strawberries. Remember how we went to the Cornbread Festival and were SOOO disappointed........So we did get an early start, not as early as I had planned but early enough.

The Strawberry Festival is in Dayton, TN, just outside of Chattanooga. Instead of going all the way down I-24 we cut through some old country roads and had a beautiful drive.

Mom and Dad met us at the festival and they arrived early to stake out the strawberry stands. There was a delivery scheduled for noon so we got there just in time, stood in line for about 20 minutes and walked away with these beauties.

We enjoyed all that festivals have to offer; the parade, the crafts, the port-a-potties, fried food, and we had the BEST frozen strawberry lemonade!

That next week I had everything STRAWBERRY!

It's too bad strawberries are at their best only a few weeks out of the year! They are my favorite!
