Another Parade? You betcha

The Storybook Cavalcade was two weekends ago. This parade is exactly what the name implies...... all things storybooks. We met the gang at our parade meeting spot. These kids are so funny Kolby sees them everyday but they still all hug like long lost friends as soon as they see each other. (probably a good lesson for adults to learn)
This parade had "Parade celebrities" such as Tigger.

 
You don't see enough Star Wars peeps in Santa hats.

Its hard to tell from this picture but there was a band marching past, all the kids were marching in time with the band.

Another parade celebrity....Mr Incredible.

 As you well know story books are not made up of super hero's alone but also include princess's and various critters of a female sort. The mere sight of the above mentioned females sent a number of the boys in our group (Kolby included) running for cover. They did this EVERY single female that came by. I think I even caught a few tongues sticking out in this picture.


The Tarzan float was a big hit.

Towards the end were the Christmas floats, the Grinch and Cindy Lou Who waving from their sled.

Rudolph walked by and was immediately covered in kid hugs

Kolby happy as can be.

And at the end the Big guy his own self.... Santa!! Clearly this was the highlight for the kids.

A fun end of the season parade, with good friends and perfect weather for November.
 
Have you heard the saying "Until the cows come home......" Well they came, didn't stay but walked past. Our neighbor called to tell us the cows were coming. (I have no idea how he knows stuff, he just does) We all walked out to watch the cows walk past our house on their way to winter pasture. (north of us) Hey we live in the country thast good country fun.
Dew and the boys walked to our neighbors to help keep the cows from wandering onto their property.

How sweet are these cuties? I'm pretty sure they are looking at me because I'm telling them I promise not to eat them .

Our horses ran our pasture the entire time the cows waked past. Stuff like a hundred cows wandering past their field makes the horses CRAZY. Made for some pretty good pics for me though.  

Ha, cows at our stop sign. There has to be a joke in there somewhere.

 
We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We were blessed to spend ours with wonderful family. A good time had by all. We have so much to be thankful for its easy to get caught up in life and forget that.
