Logan and Emmett had the opportunity to walk with the South Hill Running Club today in the Daffodil Parade. Although Lia and Ella have both walked in the Santa Parade in December, neither one of the boys have ever been involved in a group or organization that has participated in one of our two, local parades. Since they are both running track together this spring with this club, they jumped at the chance to walk with their club in this parade with Ron accompanying them. While Lia was helping to line up all of the floats for the parade with her high school's Key Club, I raced to Auburn to pick Ella up from her gymnastics practice a few minutes early, so that we could make it back to our town in time to cheer on the boys. After parking illegally in our school district's main office parking lot, Ella and I were able to find a great spot to watch the parade after it had started. Since it was such a sunny and beautiful day, we had a great time watching about sixty groups before South Hill Running Club walked by us. It was so fun to see smiling Emmett at the front of the group following Coach Joel who was leading the club in doing some warm-up drills. Although we weren't able to get Emmett's attention, we were able to yell Logan's name loud enough that he heard us from the back of the group as he walked by us. It was so fun to cheer them on from the sidelines!
