Parade

Today we went to the Ostrich Festival Parade in downtown Chandler.  It didn't start til 10am so we had time to get up and get the girls out the door.  I had a little anxiety about getting out the door in time, but Brian helped out and we did it!  We were even able to stop at the donut shop to get donuts and coffee.  We sat along the route in front of Chandler High School and saw the parade from beginning to end.  It's just a little local community event, but one that is free and that families can enjoy.  Paige really liked the horses of the Wells Fargo Wagon and the old fire trucks, which ironically were from Baldwin, NY.  I liked a colorguard group on motorcycles.  They did fancy configurations with eight motorcycles.  Hailey did really well either crawling on the lawn, sitting in the stroller eating yogurt melts or being held.  The parade lasted for about an hour and a half.  We got home and both girls crashed for a nap.  It was a really nice morning and one that the girls enjoyed.
