Sat was the Christmas Parade here in Bend, this was the second one that we have gone too in 16 yrs. Usually it is so cold that i don't enjoy standing out there and fighting the crowds, but this yr the weather was 57 degrees, what a great day. So i want to share a few of my favorites that was in the parade.

Of course Santa and the reindeers has to be the best.......
And look at this Cat Mobile isn't it fantastic? Look at the eyes here.
The Beaver
Not sure if i like more, the snowman or the car, but i guess both are cute
And then there are these cuties, i hope that you click on the photos to see these neat dogs all hooked up to the sled. So darn cute.
This one is really cute too.
When they were going down the street they had these flops on that really looked like web feet.

We have a winter parade too: our Swamp Buggy parade. It was about a month ago, and it was hot. (Naples, FL) We definitely didn't have a giant duck, though.

I love a parade! This one is fantastic. The Cat-Mobile is my favorite, but I have to give some credit to the dog team!

This winterparade looks like great fun! We haven't got one. Only in the week before St.Nicholas around the 5th December we have a parade of St Nicholas on his white horse surrounded by his Black Peters who give sweets to the children. The whole group is accompanied by the local brass band.

That looks like a fun parade. Thanks for visiting mine and to answer your question the white was a block of birds but they were so far away I couldn't zoom in enough with my camera to show them.

It looks like everyone was having fun being creative and expressive during the Christmas Parade. It's much warmer than normal up here in WA state too.
