Kid's Day Christmas Parade!

Our preschool decided to have the kids join us in the Kid's Day Parade again this year. We chose a Frosty the Snowman theme. We made each kid who came a costume they got to keep. We decorated a float and put a huge 7 foot Frosty on it. It took me a few hours to make him and he was a little bit out of proportion but it worked. We even won first prize and got a personal DVD player with a screen that folds up! (We were the only float in the parade, but hey who's counting?) It was a lot of fun and I think the kids really enjoyed it. Ridge is the shortest snowman in the front with a yellow scarf. He looked so dang cute!

Gabe and Raygen were also in the parade but me being the scattered-brained idiot that I am, I forgot to take a picture of them. The next day I made them put their costumes back on for a picture but we couldn't find Gabe's Santa hat anywhere. Oh well--I'm learning to accept imperfection. Their goats looked so cute with their antlers on. Gabe and Raygen were so proud. Tyson had to walk with Raygen and keep ahold of Snowflake (that is what Raygen named her goat) because she was on a dead run and probably would have dragged Raygen along on her face! And Thunder absolutely refused to walk, so Gabe had to carry him. It was great! They were announced as "Santa, Elf, and reindeer in training". And they won second place which was a CD player. Gabe said since they both have one they are giving it to Ridge. It was a fun day!
