"So I met the president ... Again."

--Forrest Gump

Last year Maddie was in a few parades twirling baton. That phase past, and I was a little relieved - now we could watch parades instead of being IN them. But, no. Brownies has opened up so many more parade doors. Tonight, we waited around to "line up" ... wondering if it was going to pour at any second. I stood with the girls with a giant umbrella, just in case.

The parade route turned out to be pretty dry, and everyone had a good time. After it was all over, Chloe announced that her favorite part was all the candy. It really doesn't take much to make a 3 year old happy. Hailey liked the noise; I'm sure it helped that she was getting to eat animal crackers, too!


The summer activities are wearing me out! Maddie's first week of swimming has gone well. She's learned to float on her back - her favorite accomplishment. Chloe is enjoying day camp, despite a few tears today.
