The Helper drawings were first...
Boo looks for the lucky winner.
Groups were gathered round at various tables waiting with anticipation to see who would win Helpers and the Raffle
Dawn & Brenda
The time we have all waited for - the announcement of the raffle.
Unfortunately I only managed to capture one almost decent picture of a raffle winner - not sure why this was - perhaps it was something to do with the leaping around that was going on by at least one of the winners! ;-)
A ticket is drawn....
A lucky winner! Jenny was thrilled to have won one of the raffle prizes...
Jenny won Sasha and her beautiful wardrobe and accessories
Molly the Cowgirl was won by Carla who was very excited!
Charla (I'm not sure who was more excited, her or her grand-daughter!) won the baby.
During the morning it seems Henry met a new friend....
She looks at him shyly....
....and takes his hand....
Susanna gives Henry a cuddle.
Henry meets Jackie Pitts' lad and they enjoy a good chat
What a great Festival!
Various people had to leave straight after the morning finished, but others went out for the day and returned to the hotel in the evening and a very larger group gathered in the late afternoon/early evening for drinks and chatted about their time. For some it continued well into the very late evening!
Pictures of Festival Goodies tomorrow!
