It's been a while since we posted, but we thought we could jump back in with an Irwin family tradition.
Every year there is a family-oriented St. Patrick's Day parade in North Kansas City called Snake Saturday. We've been going every year since Bella was born but this is the first year both kids have been big enough to really enjoy the parade.
We finally got smart this year about transporting the kids. However, we still parked a long way from the parade, meaning a long walk there and back (more on the "back" part later).
Waiting for the parade to start. That drainage ditch is the best toy I ever got them.
Best seat in the house.
The marching bands are always everyone's favorite part.
After the parade we hit the carnival for a bit. Bella had been on some smaller rides in past years, but this time she felt like she was ready to hit The Scrambler with Papa. She was a little worried, but once it got going she loved it.
Then it was time for the Dumbo ride with Mason and Mama.
Then Mason and Bella took a quick ride together. Of course, they both had to drive.
...and then there was that long walk back...
