Capital Ex Parade

Today at 9 am we left my friends to go to the Capital Ex Parade.  In our caravan to the LRT station were four cars holding five adults and 13 kids.  Yeah we might have been a little crazy but we had a lot of fun.

It was Lucas' second time on the LRT but the first time that he remembers and boy was he excited.  He kept raising his hand and pulling it down saying "Woo, Woo". 


We ended up getting a little seperated from our large group but thanks to the modern technology of texting we were able to meet up again.  And, thankfully we did because they had the perfect spot.  Shaded from the tall buildings...no one was across from us so all the parade people were looking at us and not the other side....and it was a nice close walk to the LRT (we must have taken seperate exits when we exited the LRT station as we were no were close to where they were). 

The kids waited patiently...





Here is a picture of all thirteen kids....


It was Lucas' first parade and I didn't quite know what to expect.  He LOVED it.  He was so excited everytime something new came down the street; which was about every 5 seconds. 


Alyssa was in control of the camera during the parade and I will spare you the 103 pictures she took and just show you some of my favorites.


The next one was definately Lucas' favorite...a BIG BIG tractor


And finally, the awesome company that puts food on our table.  Alyssa says that this was her favorite float...


I have never been to such a grand parade.  The parade started at 11am and we left before it was even over and it was already after 1pm.
