{ Christmas Parade }

We went to the local Christmas parade Saturday afternoon.

For once, the weather was decent and we didn't freeze while waiting and watching!

It was 60 degrees and sunny - PERFECT!

Keeping up with this little guy while waiting for the parade to begin was tough!

He wanted in the wagon, out of the wagon, to walk around, etc. He did pretty well though considering it was his naptime.

Look at this face!

Once the parade began,  the little ones sat in the wagon and were really interested in watching it. She loved all the candy being thrown her way! He was really into watching everything, but was not sure about the snow machine that had just passed by. 

Curly-Q was sporting a black eye that day (still is). It was an accident that happened a couple days before. She was lying on the floor and her brother was handing her a cup full of water and dropped it before she grabbed it.

Country singer, Patty Loveless, is from our town and led the parade.

And only here would there be a Tractor Club in the parade. There were little tractors, old tractors, and this HUGE John Deere!

Little Man loved the marching bands!

You know, the louder the better!

And the beads someone was passing out were a big hit too.

Big Sister went with us but ditched us for her friends again!
She was down the road a little bit at the pharmacy working with a friend and watching the parade there.

The funniest part of the day was when Jonathan got up and said I think my chair is sinking.  And I said no, I think it is breaking!  One side was completely falling apart. I guess it was all of that jumping up and down to grab candy!

Good times...good times!
