We left our construction guys (new stairs are beyond awesome, I should post pics) early Saturday morning, and cruised straight to Willo-beeee! We made really good time, and as we arrived we passed the parade kickoff point and they were just starting! By the time we made it to the end of Waldamere the first float was passing by and showering the kids with candy. It's like every kids dream right?! We collected a big huge batch of candy! The funniest part was we were so surprised to see my uncle in the Grand Marshall car and right behind him my sister and nephew dressed as a Gilligan Island character Thurston Howell III (for the contest to honor Gilligan's real life wife who was leading the parade, Dreama!) Thurston ended up winning that costume contest against two other kids (including Aiden dressed as an impromptu Gilligan in his red sleeveless, hat, and his custom lei) After the jeep portion of the parade geared up we made our way to the kid's zone where my parents and cousins were all helping out as the Heart of Willoughby. Aiden's favorite treat from last year was back, the make your own cookie station. It was a perfect day in good 'ol Wlby!
