Christmas Parade

Friday night our little town had a Christmas parade. Santa Clause came to town Friday! Downtown, next to our library, is a little house. Santa's house! He sits in there in the evenings and little ones can stop by for a visit and a little candy cane. Seems like a long time ago that we took the girls there to visit with Santa. :(

My daughter got to march for the very first time in uniform Friday night. She looked like a little toy soldier I told her. So dapper in her attire! She was sooo proud, as were we. These are the high school colors. My sister said that the uniforms are "much cooler" than they were back in her days of wearing them. HA! It was about 20 degrees Friday night. BURR!! There was a few floats and our beauty queen and the fire trucks and the band. The band director said that the band ALWAYS goes in front of the horses. HA! Since horses sometimes leave "gifts" in the street....not a good thing to march through. Yuckie! ;(

Here she is (in the middle) with a couple of her friends. Aren't friends such a good thing? The band teacher had a little snack bar set up for them after the parade. They brought things to eat and they all had a good time!

And, here is my little toy soldier! Isn't she beautiful?!??!! I love that she is using her gift God gave her of music. She loves it and I love her!
