Maple Grove Parade

Our neighbors invited us to come to the Maple Grove Parade this year.  It was on Thursday night and it sounded like it was going to be a crazy time.  We debated if we all would go but decided just Madelyn & I would go.  We had a great time!  Our neighbors were sweet enough to put a blanket and chair down for us during the day….otherwise we would have never been there early enough to get a decent spot.

The kids had a blast!  Madelyn took it all in - she was excited for the candy but half the time she was just looking around at all the stuff going by.  The neighbors had to pick up her bag so she would have it for the candy :)  They are so good to her!  The parade lasted until almost 9:00 and we didn't get home until close to 9:20.  Madelyn did great and was so excited to tell Ryan about it when we got home!  I think we will definitely be going back next year and I can't wait for Jack & Ryan to join us!

The crew: Jack, Katie, Joe, Madelyn, Colleen
