First Christmas Parade

This weekend after a trip to Charlotte for our friend's 40th birthday party we came back to town in time for the Mt Pleasant Christmas parade.

On the trip back Andrew entertained himself with a slim jim and some tic tacs:

Then we got him all nice and bundled up in preparation for the walk down to the parade route.  He wasn't amused:

Once it got dark the fireworks started:

 

I was afraid that they might freak him out, but he was doing just fine watching them:

There were some floats and some bands. And two idiots on riding mowers decorated with lights (I didn't get a picture of them).

It was chilly and Andrew got fussy at the end, but all in all it was a nice little experience.
