Opening day parade

We went downtown for the opening day parade on Thursday. It was really fun and the kids enjoyed it, but it was quite a long day! It started with donuts

We went down to fountain square and got some free stuff first! Then walked around for a while and got some Wendy's for lunch.

Here we are waiting for the parade to start:

Someone got a little cold:

Guess who tried to go to sleep on the sidewalk while we waited?

Don't worry we sat him up and out of the way of people's shoes, I just had to get a picture first. He kept saying night night and laying down. We tried to put him on the blanket but he wouldn't lay down on it!

In the next picture I thought he was listening and smiling because I told him...but turns out there way a dog behind me. He started saying doggie while I was taking this picture and the nice lady let him pet her dog:)

Their favorite parts of the parade were the police motorcycles being "silly" and driving back and forth, lots of fire trucks, and the school bands that walked by. We ended up leaving before it ended because we'd been watching for 1.5 hours!
