When Is the last time you kazooed?

Hi everyone! It is about time I posted something. I finished Sarah Esh on 30 count straw. Sarah accidently took a coffee bath compliments of my husband's coffee cup and my rush to get Sarah out of the way of mayhem.

I volunteered yesterday at Riley's Children Hospital. My family use to spend a lot of time there before my sister passed away. It was my way of paying it forward.
Anyway, there was a big "Around the World" celebration going on rain or shine. Lots of happy faces and food.
Here are the kazoos. They look so simple to play don't they? So pretty just begging to be played. After fifteen minutes or two hours of trying to get it to play,I discovered the trick is to hum into to it. For your own piece of mind if your hummer is broken step away.


I worked the South America table letting the kids kick the soccer ball and passing out candy and kazoos. Scotland showed up with bagpipes.



Mexico with food.


And a happy young fellow with his face painted. I don't know who was doing the face painting but they were awesome finishes.
You could jump on the Concord (or cross the sidewalk) and be in Paris next to throw hoops on the Eiffel Tower.

It was a great day even though it rained.

Until next time, happy stitching!
