All Things Scottish 2010

The Scottish Festival was a little different this year because now Mike is a participating member of the Knights of Saint George. It was a lot of fun--but there were more responsibilities that go along with the honor of being knighted. I love this picture of the Lowe boys:

Carson couldn't wait to get back up to Estes for the "Bagpipes". He talked about it for a few months and kept asking when we were going to go back to see the pipes. Grandma and Grandpa Lowe got him his own bagpipes, and he would march around playing them when he heard real bagpipes playing. I actually think that he thought HE was playing! :) It was SO cute--and people kept asking to take his picture :)

As always, we get to see dear friends at the festival. Sarah Clark gave Carson this dragon and he absolutely loves it. He wore his Broncos jersey on Sunday to multi-task his scottish heritage with his NFL team!

This picture was taken right before Carson and I marched in the Parade on Saturday. Check out my Facebook page for a detailed note about this experience...it was a classic tale for the ages!

The second weekend in September is a special time for our family, and I relish the traditions and quality time that we have in Estes Park for the festival. 2010 was a great one!
