The Kendall County Fair Parade
Posted in Uncategorized on August 30th, 2008 by Amy
What a fun morning! We got up, got dressed, and headed to the parade line-up on Main Street. We decorated for a good hour and then proceeded to work the crowds. The theme was backyard bbq. So on the trailer was our picnic table, our big umbrella, a picnic basket, ice chests, and Nathan standing at the grill. The kids riding on the trailer threw out candy while Myk, Alice, and I walked alongside to hand out cascarones, pamphlets, and t-shirts. It was hot, we got tuckered out, but it was a blast. And Cheesy Jane’s for lunch was just perfect for the tired crew.
