Sunday afternoon around 2 we headed downtown to Marion Square for the City of Charleston Christmas parade. I may have gone as a kid but this was my first time that I can remember going.
We got down there a good hour before the parade started so we went through the holiday market then watched a break dancing show. The show was AWESOME they even let Logan participate in one of their stunts where superman jumped over 9 people! Apparently these guys are well known around Charleston, we definitely wouldn't mind seeing them again.
Mom, Shannon, Lola, Isabelle and Oliver met us once we got our spot for the parade.
This was Olivers first parade and I think he loved it, do you agree?
The weather was awesome until the sun started to set and get started to get a little chilly. After the almost 2 hour parade we went back into Marion Square to wait for them to light the tree.
These three were having a lot of fun playing. They were running around, break dancing and doing a million cartwheels.
Mommy and two of her girls.
We ended up leaving around 5:30 before they lit the tree, not even sure what time that actually happened. We needed to get the kids fed and to their mom by 7 and the mosquitoes were HUGE and swarming us. We definitely are planning to go back soon to see the tree lit up and maybe stop and grab some hot chocolate along the way.
I love all the festive things we have already been doing this holiday season.
Tonight Dave and I have our Command Christmas party which will be nice. I am not looking forward to wearing a dress with it being super cold outside. It will be a blast and I will hopefully remember to take some pictures!
