So both of my girls was in the Memorial Day Parade, just not the same one so first we went to Gretchen's in Casstown, which I was in too because it was for the Brownie Troop. And after walking from the old firehouse to the cemetary parade number 1 was complete. I was just thankful the weather wasn't as hot and sunny this morning, so it wasn't a bad walk at all. Of course, now that Gretchen can ride her bike she was disappointed she could not decorate and ride, but that is against the Girl Scouts rules, they must march and lead the parade. If I wasn't the leader I probably would have let her decide, but I didn't think it would be good if the co-leader let her daughter back out of the parade to ride her bike. Maybe next year I will let her ride her bike in Fletcher, but of course at the cost of no candy getting, decisions, decisions. After I dismissed the girls to their parents and to be honest we skipped out on the presentation there so we could have a little breathing time and snack before heading to Fletcher so Delaney could ride the Preschool Float (hayride wagon). This was Delaney's first parade as an participant and she was a little nervous, but did great waving, smiling and throwing candy. And Gretchen was excited to see some of her friends in the parade and they threw her candy from the special pack, aka big packs, lol. All and all it was a jam packed, but fun weekend and I am sad to see it end.
