The mouse will have to wait

We went back to the fair Saturday morning, but we didn't get to play the mouse game. Grandpa Frank wasn't feeling well and wasn't able to come to the fair. In the interest of maintaining family tradition, we decided to wait until next year to introduce Sveta to the game. Hopefully Frank will feel up to it by then.

We did get to watch the parade though. It was a cold morning and as parades go, it was pretty lousy. It was long, but lousy. Only one real float to speak of. Lots of politicians handing out literature. Lots of people in cars and pick up trucks waving. The Shriners were there with their little cars and motorcycles. There were a few marching bands and of course some clowns.

I don't generally enjoy parades, but watching Sveta have a good time made it well worth the time. She really enjoyed gathering all the candy and other various treats. She loved the clowns and loved the horses. There were even people in scary costumes promoting local Halloween events. She wasn't afraid and even thought they were funny. Every ghoul and goblin that came along she wanted to high five. It was so cute!

Here are a few photos of Sveta gathering candy.
