Fireman's Parade

Today was the Fireman's Parade.

Up and down main street folks start putting their chairs
out as early as 7am to get good seats.
As you can see main street sidewalks are packed
with folks out to see the parade.

It was a beautiful day.



Here is Colton.



The band is excellent!



Had to get at least one picture of horses.


After the parade we went to the fair grounds
for the penny hunt.

Caden was patiently waiting with his buddies.

That doesn't look like much fun to me, but
what do I know.

He ended up getting $3.47.
Man was he hot and sweaty when he got done.


When we got home I picked over 100 tomato's.
I finally have some hobaneroos ready, so tomorrow
is HOT salsa making day.


Before the parade we hit all the town thrift sales.
Chyann found a desk chair.
Got Colton five new pairs of new 501 Levis'
for olny 50 cents each.
I got a huge bag of clothes for 1.85, how exciting!
Caden got some clothes and this new construction toy.
Cal got himself a 5 dollar golf club set.
Many other assorted treasures too.


Heading out to hit some golf balls,
this should be interesting because we've
never golfed before.

Nice band pictures. I have lots of memories of the Colfax Band since my daughter was in the marching band for 7 years.

I'm glad your family had fun today.

Scott calls golf "pasture pool." Guess it fits in in your case!!! :)
