Oktoberfest 2009


When I think of Nashville, Oktoberfest is admittedly not the first thing that comes to mind. However, we went to Oktoberfest on Saturday and were pleasantly surprised. It was great! It had everything that an Oktoberfest should have - brats, beer, good music, lederhosen, funnel cakes... Luckily Katie brought her camera to capture all of the fun.

Harper enjoying her first funnel cake...

...and her first beer. Just kidding. It's monday and I just wanted to make sure you were all awake and paying attention.

There were lots of cool vendors selling all kinds of things. Harper got a new hat. It's an olive! Here's a link to the vendor's site. She couldn't fit into any of the kid sized hats, so she had to get an adult sized one. Yes, my child has a pumpkin for a head. But that's ok. She has a lot of brains to fit in there so she needs the extra room.

We heard a great band called Space Capone. They were awesome and Harper loved them. She even got a shout out from the band because of her dancing skills.

Harper and Laurie found a puddle to splash in.

She took it pretty hard when we had to say good bye to the puddle. Check out that lip.

She recovered quickly, though.


All in all, it was a great day and I think we are all looking forward to going back next year!
