At 10am we headed over to Terry's aunt and uncle JoAnn and Herb's house who live on the main drag directly across from the park! We had premo seats, although when the sun got above the trees, we were pretty hot and squinty. But it was good nonetheless. And we had company - Terry's family and some other friends from church. Last year it was pretty chilly and we didn't know anyone. This year was much more enjoyable. Yeah, and last year Noah had no clue what was going on. He just had this inquisical look on his face the whole time. We had to get the candy for him and everything. This year he knew just what to do, although he calls candy "candle." Habits are hard to break.
After the parade we had lunch inside while Terry wrangled up some high school kids to help with the kids booth. The (very) small Christian school puts on a kids booth with a variety of games to raise money and asked Terry to help last year. He did again this year, although the kid helpers grumble somewhat, but at least they helped!
Firetrucks!

Why yes, that's a llama. Yaaeee! I'm a llama again!
