One of the duties that my daughter has as a "pommie" is that she gets to perform in the annual Greentree festival parade here in beautiful downtown, suburban Kirkwood. I love my little city nestled in the southwest corner of St. Louis county. Greentree is an annual even held in Septemeber at the Kirkwood park where everyone gets together and drink, eat, see crafts and shows and basically hang out together. The parade was very well attended and I got to see my daughter twice. First at the beginning of the parade standing at the corner of Geyer and Essex, then after she passed, I figured I could catch up with the parade again at St. Peter Church. I was right. Even though, I am sure she was hot from performing, each time I saw her she was smiling and looked into it. I HAVE to get that camera fixed. I have very good kids, for which I am blessed.

Unfortunately I missed this years Greentree parade. Having been a lifelong resident of Kirkwood up until 4 years ago when I moved to St. Ann it always means the start of fall to me. I think this only the 3rd or 4th year in my entire 40 year life that I have missed the Parade and the festival.
I absolutely can't BELIEVE Emily is already in high school...seems like she was just teething and stuf.
