Winterland Parade

It is time for Meridian's Winterland Parade!! It was held on December 4th at 10 am in the morning. This year we were smart and took sleeping bags to sit in. We were warmer this year even though it was snowing during the parade. Here is Brady waiting patiently for the parade to begin, with some characters in the back ground. We always wear Santa hats to the parade - very festive.
 Here is the beginning.
 Lots of fun floats.
 Stuffed animals.
 Cars that look like Santa.
 Singing and dancing.

 Spiderman??? Not sure what this has to do with Christmas... but he was there protecting the streets in Meridian.



 Beautiful Princesses with Reindeer horses.

 Pretty girls. Lots of candy was dropped in our laps. One of the things about being bundled in sleeping bags, you can't get up and get candy off the ground. I think because it was snowing - the crowd was smaller and so people dumped candy in adult laps. It was fun.
Santa!!! It really is Santa and Mrs. Santa... and the end of the parade.

Looks like a really fun parade. Great idea to be in sleeping bags. We haven't had any snow in CO--I hope we get some before next week. We need snow for Christmas.

Brrrrr! I am glad my son's marching band never played on a snowy day.
