Participating in Her First Parade


Photo-A-Day #2788

Today was The 57th Annual DANA Santa Parade and it was the first one that Eva got to participate in. She rode in a truck with some of her classmates from dance class. You should have seen how excited she was leading up tot he parade and her excitement was so visible on her face when we all ran across the street to take her photo. She was beaming from ear to ear as captured in today’s photo. Even with it being so cold and her sitting for a long time in the bed of a truck she was still very excited to be a part of the parade.

Give it Forward Project: Our Toy Shopping Trip

This past week we went on our annual toy shopping trip to pick out toys for Christmas is for Kids. Every year we set aside a couple of dollars a month to make the trip to the store and make the purchases. We lucked out this year because our trip coincided with a decent toy sale at Target. We got some good deals with 25% off different toy purchases and we even got a $5.00 coupon for the trip, too. I think we did pretty well.
