De soto Parade

Saturday night we went to the De Soto Parade in Bradenton. Jaymz scout group was doing a fundraiser for camp selling BBQ sandwiches so we decided to go hang out and watch the parade too! It was a BEAD parade (like Mardi Gras) and the kids seem to have fun at those collecting necklaces- without getting too crazy...ha ha!! Jaymz scout master is a physical therapist and his office is right on the parade route so they set their BBQ up right there! It was a great location and it was nice because all of us from church had a great place to watch the parade!
Our friend John had his DJ equipment set up to help attract customers so of course James was all over that! John let James take over most of the time and he was in heaven making funny comments on the mic and playing loud music!

The kids had a blast- in fact, Aubrey said it one of the best nights EVER! Wow!! Ü
Here are a few pics we took
