Lauren's First Parade

On Saturday, Mommy and Lauren met up with their play date group and watched the Strawberry Festival parade in Lebanon. Mommy felt like she should go to support it since it was the 100th year and she was a princess back in the day.

Lauren upon arrival at the parade. It was a little stormy at first and she was a little sleepy as well.


Ohhhhh, the parade started! Wow!


This is fun.....and these people are funny! (There were a few "characters" in the parade that may have been a little questionable.) Someone actually gave her a hard butterscotch candy which mommy snapped away!


Sleeping during the parade....boy was it a long one. It seemed to be about 2 hours...which was long for Miss Lauren. She tried napping as you can see. But the ROTC truck came by and honked, then a big rig, then the firetruck. It was hard on a little girl to get any zzzzzz's.


Here's a few pics of the other kids enjoying the parade.
