We had a great Bella Rustina last weekend. Everything went smoothly and my family and I even got to catch Monster Jam Saturday night. I don't think we've missed a year since Little Caleb was Joshua's age. I was so exhausted I kept falling asleep during each...
We started moving into the Conway Expo Center today for this weekend's Bella Rustina and I'm already sure the show is going to be epic. Many more exhibitors will load in tomorrow and I can't wait to see what they bring! I'll post preview photos tomorrow night....
