Sunday was the Saint Clair Shores Memorial Day Parade. It was a tradition when I was little to go with all of my cousins and now it has become on of our traditions as well. Jim set up two tents which made the very sunny and hot weather bearable.
Before we even got to the parade we laid down all of the rules : NO playing in the street, No fighting, and No asking for all of the overpriced crap the vendors peddle down he street. That was until we spotted this too cute for words hat. For $5.oo we had to get it. Jimmy ended up with a Sponge Bob blow up thingy that I'm sure will make it into the garbage some time soon.
Jimmy was very content just sitting in his chair chillaxin and relaxin. He pretty much stayed there the whole time with the exception of picking up some candy that was thrown.
The Fife and Drum are my favorite part of the parade. This year the parade was very short only and hour long - it was a little disappointing . After we went over to Papa Mike and Sue's house for some sprinkler fun, a BBQ and a walk up to the ice cream store. We had a great time and the kids were pooped out by the end of it all.
