Still trying to find the wordsβ¦
The 3rd Annual Ceres Music Fest is officially in the books, and Connie and I are walking away with hearts that are incredibly full.
When we started this crazy idea, we never could have imagined what it would grow into. What we saw this weekend wasnβt just a music festival β it was people coming together, families and friends making memories, strangers becoming friends, and our community showing up to celebrate together.
To every artist who took the stage, every vendor, sponsor, volunteer, staff member, family member, friend, and every single person who bought a ticket and chose to spend their day with us β THANK YOU. You believed in what we were creating, and that means more to us than you know.
There are so many moving pieces behind an event like this, and there were definitely moments when we wondered, βWhat did we get ourselves into?β π But then we looked out at the crowd, heard the music, saw everyone smiling, dancing and having a good timeβ¦ and it all became worth it.
We are especially grateful for the people who have supported us from the beginning and continue to believe in The Doghouse Taproom, our crazy ideas, and our heart for this community.
God has blessed us beyond what we could have imagined, and we don't take any of it for granted. ππΌ
From our family to yours β thank you for showing up, supporting us, and helping us create memories that we will carry with us for years to come.
We are exhausted. π
We are grateful.
We are proud.
And most of allβ¦ we are blessed. β€οΈ
Until next time, Ceresβ¦ πΆπ»
With Love,
Tony & Connie
