This time of year the city of Hiawatha (in Cedar Rapids Iowa) puts on a celebration called Hog Wild Days. There is a big parade through the streets and different events going on throughout the week: flee markets, food vendors, live music, dunk tanks, BINGO, carnival rides, 5K Squeak Run/Walk, face painting, karaoke, etc.
They were doing a contest this year for Hiawatha's Favorite Grandma. You had to submit a 50 word essay about why your Grandma is the best and they would select a winner. My cousin Kyle found out about the contest, wrote an essay about my Grandma and she WON!! She got to ride in a convertible through the parade with my Grandpa and she got a 50 dollar gift card to Kohls!
I wish I could have been there to see her celebrate, I know she must have felt like a queen and I am so happy for her. She definitely gets my vote for favorite Grandma!
