I have a bunch of stuff to blog about but I'm going to go with the most recent. Last week was our towns fair. If you've been with me a while you know that the fair parade on the last day goes right by my house. My daughter always comes over and watches with me. This year her husband came as well.
There were three marching bands. This is our local school. These kids work so hard and they're very good. They had a competition that day and took first place for (AA?)The second band wasn't very good and I mentioned it to my daughter who was in marching band once upon a time. She said because they don't practice much. The third band was pretty good though.
My daughter in law and Presley were on the float for the youth center. Presley was on the other side so she's not in the picture. My daughter in law in the one in the back pointing. I'm guessing she was pointing us out to Presley.
There were a lot more pictures that I took but I'm going to stop with these. At 1:00 I volunteered to work one of the gates for a 2 hour shift. I was with three other people and we were at the main gate which was very busy and made the time go by fast. Sorry the only picture I took there was the bag of admittance stickers and bag of cash.

What a lovely thing to be involved in.
How fun that the parade marches in front of your house. Makes it easy to watch and easy to grab some snacks from your kitchen if you want. I do love a good parade..
How fun and I remember that it goes right by your house which is super convenient. Our fall festival is next weekend and I'm excited to go.
What a fun and wholesome event..I thank you for sharing and I know you enjoyed volunteering

Oh, I love the small town atmosphere and the parade going right by your house. How fun is that?
I was in our high school marching band for 4 years. We were the top in the state. Its hard to watch without critiquing the bands as they go by. Practice ... Practice ... Practice ...
That's the name of the game!

How nice that the parade goes right past your house!!
We used to have fairs like that when we lived in Chicago - went right past our house too. This made me remember. I think that is cool it goes right by your house.
Too bad no practice. I can't imagine not practicing photography. Looks like a good day for it though, the parade.
You certainly have the best seat in the house. Fun photos, especially with Presley and your daughter-in-law on one of the floats.
I think it is nice that it passes your house. Looks like it was fun to watch. How nice that Presley was on that float. Did she enjoy it?
