Everyone Loves a Parade!

Friday night our friends came over for dinner. After dinner we were going to go swimming at the YMCA. A storm came through and closed the pool. Needless to say there were many meltdowns. To divert their attention away from the cancelled swim session I decided to bring out my old dance costumes and our old Halloween costumes for some dress up fun. The kids had a BLAST!!! (Although Steve did say we need to get some BOY dress up clothes for Ethan...he wasn't too impressed with him putting on fringe & feathers:) The dress up party progressed into a parade, complete with instruments and a drum major. As soon as the storm had passed we were marching up and down the street. It was quite a sight ...I wonder what the neighbors thought of their Friday night entertainment. I am going to send this video into Macy's .....maybe you'll see them Thanksgiving morning:)

You are such a good mommy to distract them like that! That looks funner than swimming! Emmi watched the video with me. She wishes she were in the parade! She wants to be Mickey.
