Long Grove Strawberry Festival

 We hopefully made up for the lack-of-balloon fiasco last night by getting Stephie's face painted today.  She wanted a pink and purple birthday cake, and this guy was happy to oblige for a very reasonable $3.

 Then it was time for a train ride.  Haley, Stephie, and Avery shared the red car.  Haley was such a big girl sitting on the seat!

 Stephie got a SECOND ride on the merry-go-round.  Until some kid started crying and they shut the whole thing down.  Bummer.

 Stephie was envious of Aunt Hilary's corn dog...

 ...and Uncle Ryan's chips.  Hey, wasn't it supposed to be a strawberry festival?!?
