Holiday Parade

Sometimes I get so excited about doing and showing Kelly all the fun stuff there is to do, especially at the holidays. One of those is the Encinitas Holiday Parade. Not that I went to it every year of my life or anything, but now that I have a child, I guess I am excited to not only share with her all my own family traditions, but maybe start some new ones with her too. Well, no one else wanted to brave the cold night w/me, so off I went, just me & Kelly, all wrapped up (w/a nice hot coffee with Bailey's for mommy :-) We had to park a ways out, Kelly was tired and cold, and there were tons of people. I also realized I had to go to the bathroom right after we got there, but had to hold it for fear of missing the parade. After pushing our way thru the streets, I managed to find a little spot right at the start of the parade - perfect! It took a while to get there, and I was excited! I came around the front of the stroller to get a look at the excitement on my daughter's face too.... and this is what I saw...
All that was missing was the head/shoulder bob up & down a couple times, "Oooh. This is grrreat. Awesome! Ok let's go!" (Chevy Chase... Lampoon's Family Vacation?) She must get that from her dad! Maybe next year I'll make her be IN the parade - HA!
