The Hat Parade

Pippa's first school event! The Hat Parade. We were supposed to decorate a hat at home and bring it in for her to wear in the parade. Pippa worked very hard on her crown using Elmer's glue and plastic jewels (pink, of course). Then, just after drop off, all the parents stood in a row along the sidewalk while the kids 'marched' past to show off their great hats. It was hysterical. The host was led by the wonderful Miss Lori playing the tambourine and followed by a couple of kids who where actually marching. Pippa could be found in this group, of course, taking her job very seriously. They were followed by the kids a little less inclined to participate with the same level of enthusiasm, a few of whom needed to be carried by Miss Cheryl. All the while us parents are beaming on the sidelines. The first of many such events, I'm sure.
