Frisco Community Parade

The Frisco Community Parade has become an annual tradition with us, and is the first event to kick off the holiday season.

Here are some older entries:

Today was as windy as last year, but a lot less cold.

Keira got a bit freaked out by the high school mascots, and spent the first half of the parade behind this tree.

Kassidy sat right up at the curb, and couldn't have been happier when the antique car procession rolled by.

As the parade proceeded Keira began to edge up closer to the curb, desensitized by the abundance of mascots and lured by the constant shower of necklaces and candy.

We were there to see Katharine in the "Sheena's Dance Academy" float, which was promoting their upcoming Nutcracker performance..

Iria performed an impromptu cartwheel to help kick off their procession.

She also crafted a good amount of the flowers used to decorate their floats.

Katharine and Claire.

Keira finally made it curbside.
