The Parade

We had the time of our lives at the Shallowater Homecoming Parade at the beginning of October. Annabelle's best friend, Sidney Russell, had a miniature car that Sidney's aunt Scotta had gotten refurbished. It was AMAZING and absolutely ADORABLE!!!! This little car was gas powered and the sound it made was absolutely memorable. Scotta knew that Sidney and Annabelle were too little to drive the car in the parade, so Scotta had asked a 4 year old little boy to drive the ladies...what a gentleman! Annabelle and Sidney had a BLAST, as you can see from the pictures. The girls definitely had their waves down, and they did a good job of throwing the candy too! Bryan and Nannie came out to the parade and waved to Annabelle as she passed. Daddy and Nannie also ran about two blocks so they got to wave to Annabelle two times. What a great Daddy!
I have to give two thumbs up to the town of Shallowater. That was one of the best parades I have ever seen. I bet there were 50 floats, etc. in the parade and you should have seen all the people lining the streets. WOW. I think that we ran out of candy before the first turn. Well, and all the kids had there own stash of candy that there was no way you were getting them to throw to total strangers. Hee. Hee. Annabelle and Sidney did get to drive the car for a little bit, but as you can see, they weren't paying attention to the road. Thank you so much Lisa and Sidney, Scotta and Bill...this was fabulous and amazing and now we have a memory for a lifetime.

Lisa and Mommy. Wish you were still here!
