Today we enjoyed the fun and excitement of the Hendersonville Christmas parade. This has been part of our Christmas traditions since the year before we moved to Hendersonville. The Hitchcock family invited us that first year and we have enjoyed watching the parade with them every year since. This year we found our parking spot right across the street from Kids Kingdom and set up camp. We were bundled up like little snow bunnies since it was only 34 degrees this afternoon... brrrrrr! Mary Grace, Brody, and Carolyne had a little pre-parade fun in the back of our Explorer, but they could not wait to get their hands on the dumdum suckers they always get once the parade begins. So, once the parade started, we wrapped up in our blankets and took a seat on the sidewalk. The kids loved watching all of the cars, horses, marching bands, dancers, and parade floats. They really loved seeing "Maggie", the cow from Maggie Moo's. Of course, the best part was seeing Santa ride down Main Street on top of the fire engine. The girls were waving like crazy! We had tons of fun! It finally feels like Christmas is near!
