Parada del Sol

Saturday we went to the annual Parada del Sol parade and street fair. It's a pretty hyped event in Scottsdale and an overall good time. 

Owen got a kick out of the parade. The parade was simple. It was definitely no Great Falls Fourth of July parade. In fact, Owen turned to me at one point and asked, "where are the jets?" I had to explain that not all parades include Navy jets flying over the parade route.

 
 There were horses. Lots and lots of horses. 

There was a pedal-powered traveling bar. (Probably my favorite entry.)

Cowboy kitsch was everywhere.

Owen's favorite part was the old cars that lined the street festival. He had to look at every engine.

Plus, there was a ton of stuff for the kiddos, including a petting zoo with the "world's softest rabbit" (Carrie's words).

Thank you for sharing, looks like a good time was had by all. I know we just saw you guys, but Owen looks even taller. And Carrie, Carol and I were just commenting that you get more beautiful with each picture. You guys are incredible, we love your life.

These pictures are amazing, and I felt like I was there with all the comments you posted. :0) I agree with Dad, Owen does look like he's even taller. I better plan a trip down to see you guys before he's the size of a teenager! Love you guys, xoxoxoxoxoxoxox to Owen, Mom / Grandma Bug
