This week, we were busy with two basketball games and the Christmas parade in Emporia! That is correct....a Christmas parade! We have nothing like this in Iowa, so it was fun to attend. The parade happens at night and the floats are all lit up with Christmas lights, etc. Bands play Christmas music and wear jingle bells on their shoes. Santa is at the very end and he is really lit up and looks almost magical! Peyton loved going and watched intently. Our friends, Pete and Leslee invited us to go to Pete's office for snacks before the parade and then use the office to warm up...however, Peyton never wanted to go warm up because he wanted to watch! Luckily, it was a pretty nice evening and we did not get too cold!
On Wednesday, we went to the basketball game. We played Northwest Missouri State, which is always fun and very competitive for Ben. We ended up beating them by almost 25 points! It was an exciting game and the guys are playing very well together!
We play again tonight and Peyton is getting fired up for the game. He is currently taking his nap so he will be ready to go when it is time! I hope we continue to win!!!
