the oktoberfest started today, in the downtown of my hometown. it was a bit crowded, but still had great food and caught up with a few people i hadn't met up with in awhile. the weather was perfect (i could have even worn a sweater with my outfit) and i got to wear this vintage dress that i bought at re-run's warehouse for only $10! it hadn't been warm enough since i bought it, it is quite thick fabric, because i bought it in the early summer! it was a piece i found in the 1940-1920's room and still in great condition.
i started my day off my spending it with my mother. we did some shopping and then she baked some cookies when we came home. i think i got my baking skills from her (and that's how i became interested it in!). i later met up with some friends at the festival and we had dinner at maggie's mexican restaurant we walked a bit around, looked at some craft tents, and took a few photographs. i didn't manage to ride any of the rides, but many next year...
