Thursdays.....

Peace plaza, downtown Rochester

 Every summer Rochester has an event on Thursdays called, 

Thursdays on 1st.  

(In recent years It's expanded to 3rd St. as well)

The streets are closed off and are filled with vendors of every kind

art and crafts, foods, jewelry and entertainment

On a side note.... Alot of the utility boxes downtown have been painted with pretty designs,
so much better than the plain old metal boxes

I knew my daughter and kids were possibly going down to Thursdays on 1st, and I hadn't been down yet this year so I headed down town too and hoped to run into them....

That's my grandson....such a sweet little boy!
 He's so itty bitty

Miss Audrey really wanted to have her face painted...this lady is so talented

Checking out the finished product

She's quite pleased

Audrey's beautiful bracelet, she paid half with her own money,
 grandma chipped in the other half

I found this hand crafted truck for Carson, he was so glad and held on to it all the way back to the car,

Such beautiful workman ship, I may have to pick up a few more of these for Christmas :)
