Christmas Parade

The local chapter of Ducks Unlimited decided to be in the Navarre Christmas Parade this past year, and surprisingly (not) Hank volunteered to drive. The kids were excited to be a part of the parade and to throw out goodies, which they quickly ran out of. They camo'd up Mr Dale's boat and themselves. Unfortunately Cutter got in a little trouble that day and was unable to participate or watch the parade.

 He didn't get to go but we still let him be in the pictures.

 Thank goodness other people were able to take some pictures for me.

 The duck calls were a hit with the kids. I bet the adults in the boat were wanting tylenol when done.

Visit with Santa

If I had waited any longer to post, these really would be Christmas in July. Sorry. Life gets so busy and hectic at times and spring is ALWAYS our busy time.

We go every year to Bass Pro for our visit with Santa, and every year for six years they've seen the same Santa. We love him! Cutter even refused to see Santa at a friends house because he wasn't the "real" Santa Claus. Oh, and did you know the photos there are always free?! It honestly doesn't get any better than that.

Cutter always goes fully prepared, list in hand.

This year he got a stuffed animal in addition to his candy cane.

He might be a little big to sit on his lap, but he's not too big for a visit.
