Scotty McCreery - American Idol Winner 2011 - From Raleigh
Santa Claus - HO HO
Broughton High School
Daddy & Eden Watching The Parade Come Down The Street
The Nutcracker Float - Really Big!
Wow we are exhausted but what a fun day! It started with Don getting up at 7:00 am to set chairs out on the parade route. The parade started at 9:40. We then walk from our house (about 15 mins) straight to our chairs after stopping along the way for coffee and bagels.
This year the parade was really exciting for two reason's. First, now that Eden is three she knows who Santa is and the second our "own" Scotty McCreery the American Idol winner was the grand marshall! The parade was outstanding this year! It was 2 and 1/2 hours and included some pretty big inflatables, floats and marching bands. Our own Broughton High School will be in the Parade of Roses this year! Little old Raleigh is pretty popular!
After the parade was over we headed straight to the Durham Performing Arts Center to see the Rockettes Radio City Show. Now I know what everyone knows who has seen the show. It was amazing for both children and adults! I bet every little girl who attended the show is going to dream about growing up one day and becoming a Rockette!
