Terrible blogger? Lack of dedication? Lazy? I promise I’m not trying to be a single one of these things. I know I’ve disappointed all one and a half of my readers by not presenting many posts lately. I do apologize. Fact of the matter is, I’ve spent my last several days off soaking up Mommyhood. Olivia and I have spent some much needed together-time on the floor learning how to crawl (well almost, she’s soooo close!). Anyways, I really don’t have a lot for you to do this weekend but that’s okay. We should be spending time celebrating Mom’s everywhere anyway! For the ones that still have time otherwise, below is a list of some things around Missouri to entertain you. Hope you enjoy!
Springfield:
Last week I introduced you to the C-Street Market. Don’t forget that it’s every Saturday at the Footbridge Pavilion on Commercial Street. Lots of vendors. Free event!
Stomp the Blues out of Homelessness Blues Festival will be going on at 1315 E Trafficway ($15-$18 per ticket) on Saturday between 2 & 11pm. Not only will you be helping raise money to benefit local homelessness needs, you also get to do some relaxing while listening to some easy listening tunes. Enjoy!
Head to the Remington’s Event Center on Republic tomorrow from 8-5 for the Springfield Indian Artifact Show. Close to 200 tables will be on display showcasing ancient pottery and arrowheads, along with other indian relics. There will be display-only tables and people will also be on hand to purchase your indian artifacts!
Rolla:
Downtown Rolla is playing host of “Downtown Days” tomorrow from 10am-4pm. Head downtown for wine tastings, art exhibits, and special sales from local businesses and discover all Rolla has to offer!
