Billy and Alexa are already training to be little Democrats! OK-that wasn't the point, and I hope they have their own strong political opinions some day. But they did get to spend the morning waving and blowing kisses (that would be Alexa) and yelling "I'm 4 year old! and Vote for Bob!" to the crowd from Bob Brastrup's float entry in the Potato Festival parade in Manhattan. I unfortunately forgot my camera, but they looked pretty cute sitting in the back of the flashy red Mustang convertible! Billy was a little bummed, however, that Bob didn't bring the speech and drama bus.
More importantly, they had fun eating junk food and playing on the bouncy slides! I'm glad Bob could include us.
The day didn't end there. We came home and watched a movie on volcanoes, did volcano/skateboard stunts in the living room, shot up the yard with the potato gun, and mixed magic potions that turned Billy into all sorts of wild creatures (including Skippyjon Jones, of course).
I'm pooped!
