Today's Friday Five at Five is a preview to the post I'm going to do later on my day off with kiddo. Today's post is all about...
Shangrila, the botanical garden in Orange, TX, has a scarecrow festival every October. Kiddo LOVES the scarecrows!
This festival is serious business because you get to vote for your favorite scarecrow. There are over 60 of them, so picking one is a little difficult. (Unless you're kiddo) As with any election, we took our voting very seriously.
The Judges - Papa TC, Momma TC, Kiddo
TC to be in some selfies later on...
Without further ado, and without much explanation on each, here are our votes for the top 5 scarecrows of the festival:
5) 
This one only gets number 5 because it isn't technically a scarecrow at the festival that you can vote on. It's one of the ones done by the foundation that runs the gardens, but I thought it was too cute not to be included. I would have voted for this guy if I could have.
4) 
I thought the third grade class that made this Flat Stanley scarecrow was so creative! You can't really see him, but he's awesome. Also, this class took a field trip the same time we were there and were pushing hard for votes for him. It was cute, he was cute, and he deserves some props.
3) 
This scare-y crow scarecrow was Papa TC's favorite, so it only made sense that he make the cut in the top 5.
2) 
This Olaf (or Frosty if you ask her) was kiddo's second favorite. We spend a good deal of time hanging out with him.
1) 
This was kiddo's absolute favorite scarecrow of the bunch. I'm not exaggerating when I say that we had to spend almost 30 minutes with this scarecrow so she could dance and sing to her. She also liked to run up to her and imitate her like so...
Enjoy your weekend, friends! I'll be back to report on mine on Monday!
