OLD STUFF 3-MOST AMAZING PARADE I'VE EVER SEEN

Grandma and Grandpa Brady came to visit us the first week of December. We went to the Tuacahn to watch the Christmas show they do there every year. Sam Payne (sounds of sunday guy who tells stories), Ryan Shupe and the Rubberband, and Peter Breinholt performed and they were so good. Then grandma and I went to The Story Book Cascade. It's this famous parade in Cedar City with every fictional character you could ever imagine: from books, fairytales, disney movies, etc. These pictures are from the parade and are only about 1/15 of the entire thing. It lasted almost 2 hours! They don't call it Festival City USA for nothing! And what do you know? Grandma ran into someone she knew, as always. I've always claimed that she knows someone in every single town she ever goes to. Grandma and I got icecream at Bulloch Drug. She loved the old fashioned soda jerk and said it reminded her of when she worked in highschool at the Pharmacy in Rangely and met grandpa. To finish off a great weekend, we went and watched "The Forgotten Carols" the Institute Choir put on. It was amazing. I love my Grandparents, they are so fun!
Mr. Incredible
Shrek
Peter Pan and Captain Hook Fighting
Green Wizard of Oz Castle
Wizard of Oz
Chewbacca
Darth Vadar
Darth Vadar and whatever the white guys were called
Treasure Island-the book
Old Mother Hubbard-the kids riding this float were all dressed up in rags and were chanting the entire time, "We're the kids that lived in the shoe, our mother didn't know what to do! What to do! What to do!"
Pinochio and the whale
Tarzan
3 Billy Goats Gruff-there is a goat on top of the bridge and the troll under the bridge
Alex the Lion from Madagascar
3 Little Pigs
King Arthur and Camelot
Remember the book "Where the Wild Things Are?!"
Cinderella
Noah's ark-the little kids are all dressed up as animals
Big Balloons like on the Macey's Parades
Seriously, this is only a small portion of pictures. They had EVERYTHING! I missed pictures of Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Beauty and the Beast, Little Mermaid, Aladin, Dr. Seuss, the Grinch, The Nutcracker Soldiers, The Hulk, Batman and Robin, Catwoman, Spiderman, Superman, Transformers, Teletubbies, Alice in Wonderland, Mother Goose, Humpty Dumpty, Bambi, 3 Musketeers, Winnie the Pooh, Toy Story, Daphy and Donald and Daisy Duck, Looney Tunes, Mickey and Minny Mouse, Goofy, The Easter Bunny, The Little Engine that Could, etc.

I thought of all my little cousins and niece that would love to see this. If anyone ever wants to come down let us know!

STORM TROOPERS, SHAY, THEY ARE CALLED STORM TROOPERS! I can't believe you're in our family and you don't know that! Ok, Jon probably doesn't know it either, but com'mon people. For the love!
