Christmas Parade

We went to our town's local Christmas Parade last Saturday. We moved here last year after the parade had already happened so we were very excited to go this year. We went to eat lunch at a deli in the historic section of town. Sort of our small town "downtown". We decided just to walk and see the parade from that area. It was the end of the parade route. We were standing and waiting and this local art store owner had two chairs set up and we were standing behind them ( in front of his store). He was very nice and offered one of his chairs to me. Being pregnant, I took it and thanked him very much. Anyway, throughout the whole parade, he would ask Sophie to run and get him candy that the parade participants had thrown to the crowd. At one point even, he was going for a piece of candy and a little girl ran over and got it. He made her give it to him. Definitely a different sort of guy. Funny to watch though. We did have a good time and we saw several of Sophie's friends in the parade.
