The smaller the town, the better the parade is. There’s just something about knowing so many people in a parade. You miss that in a big town. Saturday night we didn’t just go to a local parade. We went to watch family and friends show off and act like goofballs!
Of course, having a float contest involved up’s the ante on the fun.
The kids had a blast!
These girls were so cute! My 9yo noticed them for the first time this year!
It’s funny how quiet and reverent the crowd got when these guys showed up.
People got pretty creative.
This was my favorite. They were representing Little House on the Prairie and the Homesteaders.
It was a HOUSE on a flatbed. Super cool!
Love, love this shot with the sun behind the flag!
Of course, he’s the reason we all came anyway, right?
Poor Gremlin had been stressing for an hour over whether he wanted
to believe Santa was real or not. Can you guess what he decided?!
