32nd Annual Old Pecan Street Fall Festival

A cold front collided with tropical moisture from 

The Gulf of Mexico...

right over Central Texas!

And right during the 32nd Annual 

Old Pecan Street Fall Festival!

Jakey made balloon art from 

11am through 4:30pm

On Saturday - non stop - right up till it started raining...

Then it was time for a break!

I sat under my big striped umbrella and 

covered my wagon with a shower curtain...

Talk about raining cats & dogs!!

Everything got drenched...

Wet or not, Jakey got a major

KID FIX!!

It rained some on Sunday too, and the parents were so sweet to hold the umbrella over me, while I twisted their kids the balloon art fantasies of their dreams!

Hook 'em Horns!!

UT vs. Old Miss

Jakey was in the back lot of

The University of Texas Coop!

Along with a bunch of face painters,

the author of a cookbook

and Bevo!

Longhorn Butterfly

It was a burnt orange kind of day!

Some preferred a white or even a

pink Longhorn (GO Lady Horns!)

And others enjoyed having the 

UT colors in a totally different form!

 

Longhorn Flower

Though most of the huge crowds

were at the Tailgate Parties

everyone that was at the UT Coop

had a blast!!

 

Brian Jewel & Jakey

Many thanks to Brian Jewel and

For the first time, this year they had

Jakey was on the South Shore along with

2 Face Painters!

 

I went through a ton of

red, white & blue balloons!

The most popular were the Firework Hat 

and the Sparkler!

Also the "I Love the USA" twister and

As usual, I only got a few pictures

Birthday Girl!

Jakey performed her original story 

"The Land of Wulf"

Alyssa's 2nd Birthday Party!  

Here she is holding her puppy and Mariposa 

who saved the day by discovering why 

the sky was orange!

 

Mommy!

Mommy to 5 (yes 5!) daughters!  

She put together the most awesome 

Birthday Party for all 5 of them!

She chose a Circus theme... 

Jakey did balloon art, 

plus there was a face painter 

who had wonderful designs, 

a petting zoo with minature horses 

for the kids to ride, party games 

and an official photographer!

Several of the kids recognized Jakey 

from Breakfast with Santa at the 

Little Acorn Academy in Cedar Park!

Van Newland who graciously e-mailed it to me!

Thank you Van!  :)

 

These gals wanted hats - with a dinosaur, turtle & snail!

A new creation!  Horned Alien Hat!!

Also had many other new balloon creations to share at Pecan St. including a Wildcat,

 Shield, Angry Bird and though 

made previously added 

the Peace Sign Hat to my menu!

how an 11 year old giant did that!

  LOL

Angry Birds!!

Jakey was asked to entertain at a Birthday Party in
Round Rock where the theme was "Angry Birds".

I had to Google it.  My thanks to Shane"Das Chupa" Parker

for this wonderful illustration!

 

Then I had to come up with a balloon "Angry Bird"!

Cool - it even flies!!  The Birthday boy LOVED it!  :)

Thankfully, I already knew how to make "Green Pigs"!

 

They even had an "Angry Bird" pinata!

Happy 6th Birthday Jonathon!!  :)

Tons of GREAT music, wonderful dancers, 
and the kids all enjoyed an Easter Egg Hunt 
since the very next day was Easter Sunday!

She loved her butterfly hat!!  :)
