Christmas Parade and Warm Weather

I'm still here but I'm really behind in blogging and blog reading. Hoping to get more time later this week to catch up.

This past Saturday was our towns annual Christmas parade and I think it was the warmest parade that I've ever attended. No need for heavy coats, hats and mittens.
It's nice to not have to stand there freezing cold for the hour but it just doesn't feel like the holidays with all this warm weather.
Here the kids are waiting for the parade to begin.

                                       It's starting!

My favorites of course are the horses and tractors.

And Santa brought up the rear by riding the fire truck through town.

The local parades always kick off the holiday season around here.
Now it's on to Thanksgiving Day.
I plan to get a few things done tomorrow (chopping veggies, baking pies, etc.) to help make Thanksgiving Day go a little smoother in the kitchen.
Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
