New Tradition

New traditions are the best, and I am most excited about this one! In Tempe, down by ASU, they have a park called Tempe Town Lake. There are no motorized boats allowed on the lake, HOWEVER, they do a boat parade once a year. So you can dazzle your boat up, enter it in the contest, and float the parade. IT IS SO FUN! We entered ours this year, the theme: The North Pole. We had so much fun getting it ready. It was a gorgeous day and such a fun thing to do as a family. There were probably close to 10,000 people there, which makes it all the more exciting. Santa came and there were tonz of festivities throughout the day. We all agreed it was a blast and that we want to start it as a new tradition...My sweet little guy

Tatey is always laughing at his silly sissy

My favorite thing about the night was this guy. He screamed to the crowd the whole night "Merry Christmas" and got everyone to participate and show Christmas Cheer!

Lilly was honking the horn and my dad kept jumping like it was scaring him, she thought it was hilarious

It started to get cold for this little bear

These were a lot of the boats that were there:

This "UP" boat won first prize, it was pretty incredible

Not too bad for our first time eh? We are gonna win next year!
