Holidazzle Parade

The boys loved the parade. Mikko was mesmerized by the lights. He was so bundled! Note the adorable hat that Mandy made for him.

We all loved the Parade Marshall - The Target Dog

Greta and David were the perfect age. They would tell us when another float was coming. David cried when the parade was done.

Uncle Charles happened to be playing Charlie Chaplin at Orchestra Hall right after the parade was done. We went there to warm up and visit him. David wasn't quite sure it was Uncle Charles but definitely warmed up to the idea.

We had a delightful evening going to the Holidazzle Parade in downtown Minneapolis. My sister's kids, Carol and my parents ventured out. It was great weather, a great crowd and the kids were just perfect. Mikko even liked it! A perfect start to the Christmas Season.
