World's Fair of Morrellville Weekend

Time for the 64th annual St. Therese Festival - World's Fair of Morrellville. We start off by walking up to Decker Avenue.
Almost there...
We got there an hour before they officially opened.
With not much else to do. We stopped for a bite to eat. Because you need strength to play games.
This is just before the BIG BOOM!
Folks starting to line up to play all the games of chance.
My favorite spot - Sno-Cones.
Time to play Fish Pond.
Cheap and always a winner. Just the way I like it.
RJ walked away with a Blues Clues stuffed dog.

Time to move onto the Shooting Gallery

He won a stuffed elephant and rhino.
It's now off to the long row of booths full of snuffed animals, toys and other prizes.
Time to play the Birthday Game.
No winner this time.

Trying their best...

We won three goldfish altogether. And let me tell you - it's not easy carrying a bag full of stuffed animals, balls and even a bugle home along with making sure the fish make it back in one piece. And the best way to finish the weekend off is by watching the fireworks.
We take the picnic bench and lawn chairs and go out in the alley.
It was a nice show and ran for 15 minutes.
The perfect way to end a weekend!
