Osakis Festival - 150th Anniversary



















Had a great time with some of the grandkids today at our annual Osakis Festival. The girls participated in the sandpile money hunt, races, pony rides and kiddie parade. They decorated our toy tractor and three wheeler for the kiddie parade. Tomorrow is another big day for Osakis with the grand parade and more kids activities. The adults are taking in the street dance tonight. We can hear the music here at our house. Nothing like a small town celebration. Very american!

Thanks for giving our girls such great memories!!!! Wish I didn't have to work that day. Missed out on a lot of fun. You two are the greatest grandparents.

Also, Osakis should be very pleased with all you hard work you put into this festival. Thanks for that too. You are truly a remarkable woman!!!!

I think I might have to move to Minnesota for the summer to
participate in these activities.
Looks like ya'll had a lot of fun.
Did the girls find a big amount of
money? Gramma and Grampa are
having as much fun as the girls...

This does look like great fun, grandma! Memories, memories. Your grandchildren will cherish these. Now you will have another soon in Indiana to make memories with. Time to fly there, too!! You have LOTS of them, Jan!!! I am jealous! I would say make sure you enjoy them, but it is so obvious that YOU DO. Lucky kids.........
