Lucky Us

Lizzie created a Saint Patrick's Day cartoon and I asked her permission to share it here on the blog (you can click the cartoon to enlarge). Patrick and I both thought the main character was eating the gold but Lizzie explained his mom had made his favorite fruit salad so he had something lucky happen to him after all ;) We attended the local St. Patty's Day Parade yesterday and Lizzie said she was luckier than ever 'cuz she caught more candy at this parade than last years. Oh....and we all got to eat Lucky Charms for breakfast....lucky us!

Christmas Parade

When Patrick arrived home from class on Friday night, Lizzie and I marched him right back out the door so we could make it to the see our local Christmas Parade. To get him in a more festive mood Lizzie insisted he wear a Santa hat--and he DID--the entire night (I was so proud of him)! Unfortunately most of my pictures didn't turn out but you get the idea. We got there a bit early, grabbed some coffee and looked around at the Aggieville shops window displays. The parade was a true small town parade with local school bands performing and floats every kind--bikes, lawnmowers, trailers, shopping carts, a stretch limo and of course a horse and carriage for Santa Claus. Hope you had a festive weekend too!
