Kiddie Parade 2011




Every year for the past 62 years, our neighborhood has played host to the annual Kiddie Parade, which kicks off a summer of exciting events in our neighborhood and around town. This year was the first year Miss Carmela got to participate, as in years past she was asleep during all the excitement. Carmela enjoyed her first parade, and watched in awe as several drill teams, wearing about a million sequins and feathers, marched by, their boots clicking on the street, drums beating in the background. Carmela also very much enjoyed her balloon, and she enjoyed looking at the ponies, but backed out of a ride at the last minute (forcing Daddy to ask for his money back). But mostly, she enjoyed the bouncy inflatable toys the Kiddie Parade procured this year, and she also enjoyed peering down the tall, tall, tube slide at her favorite park. Small pleasures. :)
