The Parade

We went to the parade yesterday and had so much fun!! There were lots of fire engines, gymnastics clubs and bands. And lots and lots of candy!!!! Owen loved the candy. He figured out the whole candy thing pretty quickly and even ran out into the street to get some once. Mom caught him pretty quickly though. Here's a picture of Owen getting ready for the parade. I'm sitting behind him eating some chocolate ice cream.


It was only supposed to be 80 degrees, but it was closer to 90. The umbrella was strictly to keep us a bit cooler because it was a very sunny day!




The parade lasted about 2 hours and Owen, Will and I just got really hot at the end. Luckily some groups were handing out cold water bottles and even some freezer pops!



Owen held on to his bouquet of lollipops for quite a while. He wanted to eat every one right away. Mom let him have one during the parade and one at home. He loved them! He also loved when his tongue turned blue from the blue raspberry lollipop.



One tired little boy......But what a fun day!!
