On Sunday we went to the Jingle On Christmas parade. One nice thing about living in a cold place is having an INDOOR parade! The parade went through a mall downtown, which was really something to see. We ended up sitting near some stairs and there was a ramp set up for the parade to walk down.

Yeah, the ramp caused a little chaos! |
Claire liked the dancers. It was funny because all of the different groups had someone using a wagon to pull their boom box down the ramp. Most of the music skipped when they bumped off the ramp at the bottom. Oops!

I really want to see Claire dance in a parade one day...I can hardly wait to make those bows! |
And then a Halloween float. Really? Halloween in a Christmas parade? Weird!

And scary Halloween people in costumes....even more weird! |
But the best part was the dogs! Claire loved the dogs! And they were really sweet and gentle.
Finally, after two hours of this parade....the grand finale. I said, look Claire!"

Claire is looking... |
And I said, "Santa! Look Claire! Here comes Santa!" And no joke....Claire said, "Mommy hold you!!!" Good grief. She has only seen him once and she is already scarred for life.
