April 22, 2007 - Parades and Roller Skates
After returning from a fun week visiting my cousin and aunt, we had a jam packed weekend. First, Carter marched in the parade with the Cub Scouts at the local festival. The Scouts had a "float" with a canoe and some pinewood derby cars and kids on the side fishing. Carter was one of the fishermen.
We just made it back from out trip about 1/2 hour before Carter had to be at the staging area for the parade. We had to dress and quickly get down there. Dad had his uniform ready and everything we needed to go to the parade. We got in the car and made it there just in time. The weather was beautiful and there were a lot of people at the parade.
Dad and Cooper watched the parade go by and collected LOTS of candy!
After the parade, Carter had a birthday party to go to at the local skating rink. This was his first time on skates. He did really well for his first try. Here is a picture of him after he had had the skates on for about 10 minutes. Smart kid, holding on to the wall. He quickly found out that it is much harder than it looks!
Today we took it easy and rested - it looks like we have another full week ahead!
Good Night!
