Milkshake music and facepaint






Yesterday was a wonderful day as Faith and I had the opportunity to spend some much needed mommy daughter time together. After running errands in the morning we headed to a local shopping center for a picnic and music. A band by the name of Milkshake was performing. They have been on PBS and Noggin. They are a band geared towards bringing rock music to preschoolers. So after having a Subway picnic in the grass Faith and I went to have some facepaint. She chose to have a beautiful sunshine along with some purple and white flowers. The lady did a wonderful job complete with glitter and all. Next we asked the balloon man for a unicorn balloon pet. It was awesome looking. It was about then that the music started. Such a cool group for preschoolers. The lead singer, Lisa, really got the children involved. Faith went from wanting to leave to playing beach ball baseball with all the children in front of the stage to joining the love train and marching around the field. Faith's favorite part was when Lisa shook yellow tissue paper out of a bottle and called it a bottle of sunshine. We enjoyed a cupcake together and even said "hi" to a walking credit card. I have to say that we both needed this time together and it was wonderful to spend so much time with her.
