How did you spend your Saturday?

I spent mine freezing my behind off at my daughter's Christmas parade!!

My Mozzie is such a trooper! She came and stayed for the entire thing! Of course hot fried pies did make nice hand warmers!

Waiting for the parade to come down Main Street! The temps hadn't started dropping too much at this point, but it was still cold!

Hayden is in the chorus at her school which is the largest elementary school chorus in the state of Georgia! They had their Christmas performance Thursday night at the school. I know I'm a wee bit biased but...the second and third grade chorus totally rocked and sounded AWESOME!!!

"Geseende Kersfees"
That was Hayden's solo line. It's Merry Christmas in Africa. At least that's what they tell us.

On Saturday Buford had its annual Christmas parade and one of the highlights is the Academy's chorus walking in the parade and performing afterwards. We were supposed to have temps in the low 50's with plenty of sunshine....or it could be overcast and in the 40's with temps rapidly dropping!!! I know that's nothing to you guys in the north, but to us here that's not only cold; it's FREAKING COLD!!!! Of course Hayden didn't want to wear a coat because "its too puffy and I'll look stupid". Of course blue lips and goosebumps is a good look and she decided to go with that. She changed her tune after the parade when they had to stand around and wait to perform. Then puffy and warm became the best thing ever!

Not as exciting as yours that's for sure. Love the Santa hat on Hayden.

Mine was not that exciting! Stay in and stay warm.
I have 2 that think they won't be cold without their jackets. They always end up wearing them after shivering to death!
