Light Parade

 I am always up to be on any kind of stage, even if it means a moving stage. Bro Hale in our ward builds a float every year for the Phoenix Electric Light Parade, he has been doing it for like 6 years now and has won a bunch of times. This year the parade theme was Christmas Round Up and our float theme was the sherrif having Christmas dinner with the outlaws. Bro Hale had asked Will to be the sherrif and he was stoked! This was a two night event, Friday was judging night, where the judges would walk around and score each of the floats. Will had to work that night, so I asked an old high school friend that I had kinda lost contact with to come (I also have zero western wear and she rides horses, so she was the prefect person to ask!). Friday night was super cold and we didnt come prepared with blankets and such, but we got a free t-shirt at the end of it. After the judging, Katie (my friend) and I went to the this awesome healthy resturant right now the street, La Grande Orange. I was so nice being able to have a little girls night and catch up with an old friend.
 Saturday night was the big parade, but Will and I had a busy day that day so we were rushing to get ready for the parade that night. We all met at my house, Katie brought another old friend of mine that I use to cheer with Courtni, and we all headed to the parade float. Mind you the traffic was crazy! Once the parade started it was so much fun! Its funny to see people ready really excited to see normal people on a float. Will soaked up all the attention and really played up the Sherrif role. After the parade our hands and cheeks were so sore from all the smiling and waving ( such hard work riding a float). I guess the parade was on TV too, So look out for us on the news! If anyone asks you to be on a float, SAY YES, it's to much fun to say no too.

Here are some pictures of us on the float!
