Back from the parade

It was a bit chilly. The wind didn't die down and it rained on and off but it was a nice parade just the same. There were lots of people there and so many excited little kiddies waiting for Santa's arrival. The parade lasted about an hour. It was a great evening. Now the holiday season is in full swing. I got my tree up and the lights on it but I didn't decorate it yet. Time to relax and try to catch up on some mylotting. Hope everybody had a great day so far.

@Happy2BeMe Happy mylotting to you as well. That is sad when they stop something through the years that they always use to have.

Happy mylotting. This is the only parade that we have. We use to have a few other ones but they stopped over the years.

They had a great parade in the town near us last Friday night. It was balmy-in the mid 60's F and calm. The next day it was much much colder and windy. They had 100 floats in our parade, and had to turn away last minute requests to join in-don't ask me why they'd turn a float away. Our tree won't go up for another couple of weeks, we're away next weekend and yesterday I got out our snowman and Santa display and got that set up. Such a fun time of the year.

That is a big parade. Sad that they turn floats away though, a lot of hard work goes into them. It is the best time of year.

I LOVE that photo! My nephew will be helping me to decorate for Christmas after our Thanksgiving dinner on Thursday. I will be very happy to have the candles in the windows.
