Main Street Parade!

If you have never been to a small town parade you are missing out. There is something so sweet and magical about it. Everyone, and I mean everyone, comes out to see it. They put up the snowflakes on the light poles, they were selling cotton candy and kettle corn. We were all bundled up because it was about 40 degrees outside. Kids danced, did gymnastics, played instruments. All four elementary schools came out for it and had floats made. You will see Judah's school float below. Their theme was "Reading Rocks!", notice the Elvis and the guitars. The fire department brought the engines, the police department dressed up little dogs and had them sitting in the car with them. Our kids were overjoyed.

We had so much fun, everyone was throwing candy to the kids and our kids got a stuffed Christmas bear and and a reindeer when Santa's sleigh went by.

After the parade we went for Chinese food and the kids stuffed themselves with candy. It was a wonderful night.
