Veterans Day Parade

Brynnly was so excited to get to be in a parade, although she had no idea what being in a parade meant. But she had been talking about it all week long.
And this is how the rest of us felt about being there...After waiting for over 2 hours it was time for DANCE ADDICTION to make their grand entrance... By the time they were ready to actually take off from the parking spot we had been waiting in Brynnly was begging for me to hold her and wanted nothing to do with sitting in the trailer and shaking her pom poms.

But once they started to move, she loved it and was happy again. Brian and I were on the wrong side of where Brynnly was, so he had to chase the trailer down the road to try and get a few pictures.

I recognized this familiar face so I had to snap a picture of Suzanne working the runway. Her family had the best float in the whole parade...maybe it was the only one come to think of it!

I learned a few things from my first parade experience as a mom. Don't show up until 5 minutes before the parade begins, and don't tell your husband that all the other dance dads will be there 2 hours early as well.
