Day After Thankgiving Part 3 - Forts, Parade, Rudolph and Poppy

Ally is really into forts right now - a fort, a tent - a cave - anything that she can play and hide under. Grandma Debbie worked really hard rigging this one up - it even involved securing a blanket with the window closed on it! (Ally thought that was very creative)

Excuse the blurry - but its Ally and Grandma under the tent!


We went to the parade! Its the annual Christmas Tree lighting and Day after Thanksgiving Parade in the town where Dave and Debbie live. Love this picture of Beth, Becky and Debbie.


Ally was so excited for her first parade.


There is a large Hispanic population in their town and there were several marching groups in elaborate traditional costumes.


The highlight of course was Santa - and I couldn't get a great picture, but you get the idea - it was Mr & Mrs Santa.


Back at home after her bath to ensure she was tick-free watching Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and wearing the light-up red nose!



Ally asked poppy to read her a book before bed on her last night.


It was a quick trip - only 3 nights and 2 full days. But it was really wonderful to spend the Holiday with Becky's family. Thank-you to everyone for making it so special for Ally.
