I think it's odd that I've lived in MN for most of my life, and I don't recall ever seeing the Hollidazzle Parade. Perhaps I've gone before, but it just doesn't ring a bell. I've wanted to go the last few years for the kids, but the days that were available were simply COLD. Standing out on a side walk in freezing temps is not a place I want to be with little people. So, I kept an eye on the temps this week and we were very happy to have almost 50 degree weather on Saturday! We were off and we left the boots and snow pants at home! There is something magical about being downtown at night around Christmas time. It's so pretty! The kids loved the tall buildings and looking UP!
Here are some of the floats going by.
Nikkels was fascinated by the lights, music and people dressed in crazy costumes.
And Santa waved right at us!
And when we got home from the parade that night....look who we found!!!!! Our Christmas Elf, Brownie, showed up again with a special note for the kids. Basically told them he's back, is going to keep an eye on our family and most importantly...no touching the Elf! Let the games begin!!!!
