Last Sunday, me and Pete went to the Street Fair in Media, PA. I love Media! I would live there in a heartbeat! ...if it wasn't located in Delaware County. Its me though. Quaint shopping village full of creativity and art and cute homes. They aren't very pet friendly though :o( but anyways it was so much fun! Me and Pete just strolled along visiting all the tables... I LOVE street fairs. Beautiful hand crafted jewelry, photography, homemade doggie treats, retro sports memorabilia, knick knacks, all kinds of different artwork, handmade crafts of all kinds... clothes, blankets, purses, hats. I could spend the entire day there easily if I was rich lol. I left with a beautiful necklace of the Tree of Life... anyone who knows me knows I have a fascination with the Tree of Life, some homemade doggie treats for Sammy (and that Maggie likes as well ha ha!), an awesome shadow box piece that says "imagine, dare to dream," a piece that looks like four glass coasters together, in each section is a letter and it spells out love. We also got used cds for a really good deal! We got some good ones... well good to us... Bush, Nine Inch Nails, G Love and Blink-182 (although I'm not a big fan of Blink lol). Pete also got a very cool bracelet, Native American Rune bracelet... braided leather and the Rune charm that means "Balance" in the center which looks like a "P."

Well after the Street Fair, we weren't ready to go home yet so we decided to venture to the Broomall Carnival! Carnivals are one of my favorite things ever. Just being there reminds me of being a kid. Especially at night... all the rides, lights, games, prizes and the smell of funnel cake in the air! I was in my kid-dom glory :o) We started visiting all the games... Pete loves the dart games and of course there was one there! And he won! He won a really nice quality USA soccer jersey... he decided he should give it to my Dad who really liked it. He played a few more games... a football toss and gun shooting target game (for Ant lol). Then we walked up to the fishy game... the game where you win fishies. Trying to get balls into little glass jars. We won seven fishies!!! But we traded in six little fishies for the two big pretty fantail goldfishies :o) So we left with three fish. We went to the store to get a small tank. We now have a whole tank setup lol. We got really into it! The fish I really, really, REALLY want... I can't get yet. Koi. But I will someday. For now, we have our little fish family that we are so excited about! We have the three we won... Pumbaa- a black/orange shimmery Comet goldfish who really likes to eat, Ariel- (Mom's) a pretty orange/white Fantail goldfish
and Flounder- a bright red orange Red Ryukin goldfish. Then we have Kingston- (Pete's) a really awesome looking fish... yellow face with black speckles, orange belly with black speckles, black fins and he's a Sunburst Platy named after the capital of Jamaica 'cause he looks like he's from the islands. Then there's Jack Johnson- he's a Turquoise Guppy. Very tropical looking... yellow face and belly that fades into beautiful big fan like Turquoise fin. Then we have Angel- she's a Pictus catfish (originally thought to be an Angelicus catfish therefore the name... and now it stuck lol). She's shimmery silvery/white with black spots and really long whiskers. And she's preggers. Well she's actually filled up with eggs, but without a male they won't be fertilized. Then there's Sucker- an Otocinclus (very similar to an Algae Eater but cooler looking). Last but not least, my favorite. Gary! Gary is a Mystery Snail... with a bright golden yellow shell and creamy white colored body with orange speckles. Named after Spongebob's pet snail. He's so cool :o)


Well we're loving our little fishy family! Summer's coming soon... and with that all the craziness planned! I can't wait :o)
