Memorial Day Parade

We had a great time at the Memorial Day Parade. The Burkett family met us in town to watch it. There were lots of Army vehicles (which the guys loved), horses, floats and people dressed in period costumes. There were many veterans in the parade - we were able to show our appreciation for their sacrifices. We only had a one snafu at the parade, the boys were afraid of the guy dressed as the Hokie bird - well it was not a traditional Hokie bird but looked more like a robot. It did not phase Miss Caroline at all. Tommy was fine after we realized that he had hats for a

rumpus.

After the parade we went to the Chatham Hill playground with the Burkett's and the Pugh's. Only two snafu's there - Jack had a gun that everyone wanted and Mason got hit by a swing. Oh, the third snafu was when Brady almost fell off of the merry-go-round after I told him not to drag his feet.

Brady went and stayed with Nay for a few hours. They had a great time together!
