Merry Christmas from Small Town, USA!

A couple of weeks ago we attended the local Christmas Parade in downtown St. Cloud. It was the official kick-off to the Christmas season! St. Cloud really is a cutie little old town, with lots of local charm and even more local rednecks. I'm sorry this post doesn't showcase much of the latter, but trust me, they're here.

It's been a while since I've been to a good old-fashioned small-town parade, so I was pretty excited. It ended up being almost 80 degrees that day, which was the start to this too-warm-for-December weather we've been having. Not that I'm complaining, but it's too warm for Christmas right now, even for Florida! Bring back my 68 degree winter weather please.

Anyway, here are some pictures from parade day.

How cute are they?! (ps- notice the girl in the front left picking her nose-HA!)

Woo! My School District. :)

Awesome when you happen to be downwind. Real funny ladies.
