Memorial Day Parade

Today, Elias's friend Allison invited him to be a part of her neighborhood Memorial Day parade.  Since we live in a small town, we knew most of the other families that participated in the festivities. The bigger kids rode their bikes but Allison and Elias rode in a wagon that they decorated.  Afterwards, we had a cookout with Allison's family. Events like this are one of the reasons we have come to love living in a small town.

Ready for the parade to start

All of the kids lined up for the parade

Elias got his first sucker.  He liked it :)

 Good friends and post-parade suckers

Elias loves playing with his friend Allison.
We went home for naps and this evening our neighbor, Barb treated us to KFC.  We enjoyed it outside on her patio.  After dinner, we brought our full bellies to a cookout with friends where we socialized until bedtime.  It was a wonderful day of rest and friendship.
