Lion's Rodeo Parade

It was a BUSY Saturday. Saturday afternoon Courtney had a parade for the Lion's Rodeo. It was a huge parade with almost 100 entries. It is the place to see and be seen. Courtney's dance group, Pizazz, had an entry in the parade and so she got to be in it. They had an option of either riding their bike decorated or riding in the truck. She was a bit nervous that she wouldn't be able to ride the entire route on her own, so she rode in the truck. She had a great time waving at everyone and doing the Pizazz cheer! But her favorite thing was the make-up. I have a real hang up about putting make-up on my 5 year old, but they asked for it to be done. Courtney was in little girl heaven. She only had blush, lipstick and mascara, but it was enough to see that she is a really "girly-girl." And I also discovered that she has really long eyelashes. I put mascara on her and then put her glasses on. When she blinked, there were little trails on mascara down her lenses of her glasses. She said, "They always brush, it's no big deal." Funny girl.

After Courtney's group passed by, I walked down to the finish of the parade and grabbed her and took her back to where my parents and aunt and uncle were watching. She got to catch candy (there were some vicious candy grabbing kids around us but she held her own!) and wave at everyone. It was a fun day! Bryan and Ethan missed it because they were at the Scout Celebration, so it was a girl's date. ;)

Cute girl!

She's on the truck (her name is right over her so you can find her):
