Round Up Parade 2012

We took in the Round Up Parade again this year. (Last Saturday...) Grandma Cathy & Grandpa Steve joined us for the festivities. They have moved the parade to 9:59 a.m. instead of 12:59 p.m. MUCH nicer than the 100+ degrees that we had while I was teaching. And it allows us naps after lunch.
Mae hadn't gone to sleep until after 10:00 the night before so she was pretty relaxed the enter time. We were home by noon and she slept until 4:00!
Nice float.
Shriners and their mini cars.
Life Flight float. We know all three people in there. (That is Alane Rimmelspacher Chenault mom.)
LHS Marching Band. Jackie and Rachel are the center two in the front row. Now they have their purple on!
Green truck - this one is for Mae.
Nemos!!
Family Promise float.
Civic Theatre "9-5 The Musical" float. Bob is playing in the pit (but didn't have to participate in the parade) and mom, Cathy & I are going next Sunday!
Democratic Fire Truck - Sweet Dude.
Not exactly sure, but it was a decorated float.
We have hit most of the parades over the last 12 (yikes!!) years. I think I've only missed one. Here are a few highlights from since we've had kids. Practice 2011. Parade 2010. (Mae was only about a week old! I had a picture with her, don't know where it went...) 2009 we were riding bikes on the trail. It's the only parade I've missed since 2001. And 2008. My first year not in the parade. It is not a parade dedicated post, but the 2nd & 3rd pics were taken while waiting for the parade to start.
