Parade Fun

This past weekend our neighborhood had some Pioneer Day celebrations.  Included in this was a parade.  So, Grandma, James, and I ventured out with the little ones to watch the parade.

I forgot to get a picture, but it was our first time testing out our new baby carrier....it worked like a charm!

The girls were very excited.  They even wore their new cowgirl hats in honor of the parade.  Sofia was really concerned about hers falling off...so one hand held it on, while the other picked up candy.


 At first they were a little hesitant to run out to get the candy that was thrown at them....
 ...but those reservations shortly wore off.  We had to call Sofia back several times because she started going too far to pick up candy.  Pretty soon the hats were converted into carriers for the candy.

We decided sitting at the front of a small-town parade is the way to go.  This is the loot the 2 girls picked up in just 20 minutes
