Veteran's Day Parade (11/11/08)

The girls marched in their first parade this year! And no Angie, I'm not counting the lame event that Sydney and Lauren did with the ballet class as a "parade." That was just sad. But I digress...
This was the big Veteran's Day Parade and it really was quite large! I think we were like the 115th group or something like that. Thankfully the weather was nice and the girls were all well-behaved and the whole event afforded a great opportunity to learn about veterans, service to our country and patriotism. Homeschool and Girl Scouts. A perfect marriage.

Awwwww. Aren't they cute?




Here's Delaney with her Daisy troop. They may be small in size, but they are HUGE on energy.



Here is most of the girls' troop posing with their leader (in the green shirt). Sydney (green vest, pig tails) and Delaney (front and center) had so much fun.


I promise that they were more organized when the parade actually began. Here they are trying to figure out where everyone is supposed to stand and practicing their Veteran's Day chant.

I don't have any pictures of Sadey, but she had the luxury of being pushed along the mile long route in her stroller while she and mommy passed out candy. Next year she'll be a Daisy and she WILL be marching :)
