The city of Laguna Niguel has an annual Christmas Parade and we finally decided to hit it up for once! It was my mom's idea, but we invited Sarah and Laura to join us and had a great time. Thanks for the fun idea, Mom!
We just walked down the street from our house and set up camp towards the end of the parade route. We all expected it to be a lot colder than it turned out - sweaters and jackets were shed quickly in the 70 degree weather, and Sarah's hot chocolate she brought didn't get nearly as many takers as we expected!
Libby loved the parade so much she may have even convinced her dad that parades aren't so bad after all! They had so much fun together and looked so cute! She was just taking it all in.
Between the bands and the horses it was a toss-up for what was her favorite. The bagpipe band with kilts was extra fun!
One of the paraders (is that a word?) was handing out candycanes and Libby thought it was the greatest thing she'd ever tasted! Mommy thought it was the messiest thing she ever tasted! 
Well, I've gotta say, I think you know that you've made it big as a city when Magic Johnson is the grand marshall of your parade! That put Laguna Niguel on the map for sure!
3 kids, 6 adults, and about 2 hours of people-watching! It was a fun event and we were very glad we went. Merry Christmas, everyone!
