I was so sad to miss last week's I ♥ Faces contest but I'm happy to be able to participate in it this week! Week 17 is all about hats.
Adult Entry
Last Saturday, J and I went to a crazy festival complete with a funky parade. We went last year and kicked ourselves for not remembering our camera--you cannot believe the costumes they sport in the parade! This year I brought my lovely Canon cyber-shot camera along. Maybe next year i can visit the festival with a fancy new "real" camera...we'll see about that!
Anyway, I snapped lots of pics of the marching band and their hilarious outfits. There were so many to choose from but most of the pictures' backgrounds were way too busy. My favorite hat was definitely the woman who had a sock monkey on top of her hat! Hilarious!
Sadly, those didn't turn out too well but the chicken-hat woman did. J liked the brightness of the photo I'm entering, but I was partial to this slightly more subdued one. In the end, I obviously deferred to his opinion as he has taken photography classes and his dad is a professional photographer!:

Kid Entry
C is well known for all her huge flower hats. Sometimes even i don't recognize her without her token hair accessory. There were so many fun photos of her from when she was younger and I had seriously the hardest time figuring out which one to use. In fact, I published one and came back and deliberated for another hour and finally decided on this photo. If you want to see just what could keep me up from 3-4 in the morning, check out the other options in my Flickr Photostream
Now make sure you head on over to the I Heart Faces blog and check out the other fun takes on this week's theme.
Thanks for visiting and feel free to leave me comments on how to make the pictures better!
