In many years past, we have braved the cold and windy weather to watch the bands, floats, and parade participants march down Main Street. This year, the kids got to participate IN the parade instead of watching it. Our friends, the Rankins, invited Cole and Mary Conlee to ride with them in Darrell's Lee County Supervisor truck. Cole wore his cub scout uniform and MC was decked out in Christmas attire! Uncle Darrell and Aunt Cacky picked them up early so they could be in line for the parade. They enjoyed a cup of hot chocolate with them in the board room at the Lee County courthouse. Judd and I stood with friends in front of Calvary so we could see them as they came down the street. Lucky for us, they were close to the front! Judd and I ran along side them so we could grab the kids at the end of the parade. It was a great way to start off the Christmas season...and a busy beginning to Nutcracker Saturday!

Glad to find some hot chocolate on the corner in front of Calvary
While the rest of us stayed outside and froze, the kids were having a blast in the board room at the Lee County Courthouse
Let's have a parade!
We spotted them coming up the street...decked out with a big wreath!
Waving at friends and bystanders was a lot of fun
