The Big Parade

This morning we were watching (on TV) the Santa Claus Parade which takes place in downtown GR every year.  Peter was very excited about all the different floats, vehicles, and other things that he saw in the parade, so he decided to have his own parade.  Many of you know that Peter has a map of Grand Rapids stored in his brain, so he had his little parade all mapped out using downtown streets which were represented by different sides of the table.  He also wanted Christmas trees on some of the vehicles, so we dug some out of our Christmas village decorations and temporarily attached them to the vehicles with Play-doh.

The helicopter was going to fly over the parade route:

After we drove all the vehicles around the table, they ended up in this parking lot.  Apparently some of them were going to camp there for the night. 

I love Peter's creativity and imagination!  He never ceases to amaze me with his ideas.
