Parade

Someone, who shall remain nameless, mentioned to his wife that in 2 hours there was going to be a parade about 10 minutes from our house. Well, the children of this nameless man suddenly had excellent hearing abilities and over-heard this discussion and of course, there was no talking them out of going to the parade. So, this very tired, jet lagged mommy got the children all ready and we went to the parade - without the aforementioned nameless man because he is very behind in his schoolwork from being gone for 10 days. It ended up being a very nice parade and the kids were thrilled. I managed to stay awake long enough to keep the children from being kidnapped and even snapped a couple cute pics.
