DSM::Farmer's Market, Downtown, & East Village

Last Saturday, Adam worked on the Jeep with a friend, so I took the kids downtown.  Our primary goal was the Farmer's Market, but we had no agenda and ended up walking around for hours. We ran around at Cowels Commons, ate through the Farmer's Market, watched runners prep for the Dam to Dam 5k, shopped at Locally Grown & RAYGUN, explored and played the piano in the East Village, ran around and sang at the Simon Estes Riverfront Amphitheater, and splashed in the sprinklers by the Des Moines River before calling it a day. It ended up being pretty warm {90+} and I wore jeans {duh!} and blister-causing flip flops, but it was worth it because we all had a super fun morning!  We ended up spending 4 hours sitting in an auditorium for Jordyn's dance rehearsal later that day, so it worked out perfectly!
