...Christmas Parade...

...of course the band marched in the Christmas Parade...

...in N.D. there was never a Christmas Parade as it was always way too cold by then...so it's been 7 years since we've been to a Christmas Parade...

...it was threatening to rain as the band lined up...
...for some unknown (to me anyway) reason the band director allows the kids to wear a 'crazy hat' for the parade...Scout chose a fedora...
...the police started the parade...just as it began to sprinkle rain...followed by the Mayor...
...and then our band...in position #3...
...this band does a parade really well...
...with their perfectly straight columns...and rows...
...I just thought this photo with me video taping in the corner was funny...
...in no time...the band had passed...
...and it was on to all of the traditional parade items...fire trucks...
...and Girl Scouts...I thought these scouts decorated with tree skirts and ornaments was adorable...
...there was even a Santa train...

...it was fun being downtown with the tall buildings watching a parade...I think Scout was 6 the las time we did that...

...has your town had it's Christmas Parade yet?...did you go?

~Have a lovely day!
