—-The Amherstburg Christmas Parade was held yesterday.  The weather was cold but tolerable and we were able to watch it from the beginning ’till the end.  The bank at the corner where we watched it served free cookies and hot choco. The boys had fun especially with all the candies they got. Another reason why I love  to live close to downtown, we can watch all the community’s special event.  I have tons of pictures and here’s few of them for my entry today.

Here’s the man of the hour, Santa & Mrs. Clause waving at the crowd.

here’s their loyal reindeer, anybody know their name?

and of course, Mr. Snowman and his family.

and two turtle dove, (I wasn’t able to take a picture of Partridge in a pear tree)

and my boys  new found friend, Mr. Yogi Bear, he’s so close because he personally handed the candies to Kendrick.
