The Linn-Mar Homecoming parade was tonight and it just so happens that our house is on the route so we headed outside to sit on the lawn and watch the parade! When we started to hear the parade coming, I turned to Ben, and said that the parade was starting and it was so exciting. Ben told me, "Okay, Mom, I know it's exciting, but just calm down!" Ironic, that my Ben tells me to calm down!!! He loved the parade and Ben really loved catching all the candy that was being thrown at him!
Conner absolutely loved the marching band! He just stared in awe as they passed us. As soon as they walked past and happened to stop playing, Conner started listing all of the instruments that he liked. Tuba, cymbals, drums, trumpet.... He was pretty excited about it. He also enjoyed catching all of the candy and was very cute picking up one piece at a time and bringing it over to his pumpkin!
The football team was the last group in the parade, and a friend from HyVee was walking with her son, so she stopped and gave the boys little footballs, which they thought was pretty cool! When the parade was over, we said goodbye to a few friends we had seen from school and went inside to go through all the candy!!!
