Of course when I whip out my camera to take a few pictures my battery is stone.cold.dead. I was able to snap a few pictures with my iPhone and better yet.... I was able to take a couple of short videos.
This is Willie or Waylon, one of the outlaw mules, before the parade. I can't tell them apart.
This is Mr. & Mrs. Claus aka Daddy and Mama. Don't they look cute in their Christmas red?
I hate I did not get a close up of the bedazzled bling on the front of Daddy's shirt. I found that shirt for him last year at Cracker Barrel. It is from the Alan Jackson collection and has been henceforth and forevermore declared the Christmas parade shirt. I lifted this picture from some nice person's eBay auction:
This is player #1 (aka Josh) and player #2 in training (Jacob) getting the wagon all decked out before the parade.
Jacob striking a pose. I think he liked it because he's already tried to Facebook it.
This is Jacob after he said something he shouldn't have said. He did that a lot today. Just kidding. Sort of.
Finally, this is a picture of the Nativity vignette I have on top of my piano.
I bought the Nativity set years ago and it is one of my favorite Christmas decorations. Last weekend Jacob helped me put up 5 trees, one large one and four table tops. The painting in the back was a birthday gift from my friend. I love it! It's on canvas and is definitely a keeper.
So given my blogging track record, I may or may not be back before Christmas. If not, I wish you a very merry Christmas!
