Parade



We had a parade this weekend. This is a big deal in our town. I guess it's been a big deal for many years. Cody remembers participating in the football parade and going outside and catching candy when the parade came through his neighborhood. This is the 3rd year we've gotten to be a part of it, and it still amazes me how many people come out for it. The vehicles go all over town with a police and fire escort.




We got to watch the vehicles this year instead of being in the vehicle. I like watching and I like riding with the kids. They get so excited and love throwing candy at all the people.














Notice how none of the boys are actually throwing candy? We were at a spot about halfway through the route. This is very important to remember for next year. We must set aside some candy to give them when we see them, so they can throw more candy. The coaches said all the candy was gone about 10 minutes after they started :)
