CALEB'S 1ST PARADE
Yesterday a new opportunity came up at lunchtime from a co-worker. It is time again for the annual Spring festival here in town. They always start with a big parade, and we always avoid it because of the crowds...plus Caleb has always been too little. Well yesterday at lunch a girl at work tells me everybody that was supposed to ride her parents float for the local hospice group backed out at the last minute. Apparently her family decorates a float 2x a year and has been doing so for 25 yrs. Anyway, she asked if I would ride and bring Caleb. Of course I thought Caleb would love it, so I arranged for Josh to bring Caleb to me at 5:00 and we would ride the float together. Caleb had a BLAST and was so cute waving to all the people. The parade only lasted about 40 minutes and by the end Caleb was pooped and laying his head down on my lap. It was loads of fun. I got some pics before the parade of Caleb playing by the float (the theme was patriotic). My friend at work took some pics ON the float, but she has not yet sent them. I will modify my post with those pics once I get them. Hope you have a good time looking at them! :) I got a few with Micah on the float too, but he went with Daddy when it was time to move...I didn't feel confident with a baby and taming a 3 yo on a moving vehicle!
