There was a Dolly sighting.
And a pretty pirate lady.

Robin Hood and Maid Maryann were there. (That's R and bf).

Raggedy Ann showed up.
Cakes for the cakewalk. We gave 24 cakes away.

Thanks to both of you! B., I was tickled by your youngest enjoying the music this morning. I could see him jumping up and down but couldn't out and out look at him or I'd crack up.
