We ended up in a Safeway parking lot trying to figure out how to get to Target (which would end up being impossible) when I asked a lady what in the world was going on around here. It was the annual "Parade of the Marching Bands". Who knew? The boys had never been to a parade before -- so we parked our car, picked up some snacks at Safeway and found a front-row spot to watch the parade.
We didn't stay for the entire parade -- but the boys thought it was great! Marching bands -- some good -- some needed a little more practice -- old cars, Boy Scout troops, 4-H dogs, Little League teams, old-fashioned fire engines, more marching bands, political officials and everyone was throwing candy!
The boys checking out the action.
Didn't take long for them to get in the spirit!
Yeah for the old fire engines!
Munching on goldfish crackers.
Wiped out!
Sam spent hours outside this afternoon. We pulled out the water table and he scrubbed it up and filled it up with water. That has been the best garage sale find ever!
Our neighbors were staining their deck -- so Sam decided he wanted to "stain" the fence. I found him a roller and gave him a bucket of water the let him go at it!
He was really working hard!
Zak woke up from his three hour nap and joined in the fun.
These dirty boys went straight into the bathtub!
