Clarkston Christmas Parade!!

Calvin Bordine let me ride on his winning float!! What an honor for me to be the hometown queen riding the hometown float!!

On December 11th I was in my hometown for the annual Clarkston Lighted Christmas Parade!! I was blessed with the opportunity to be on the winning float, the Boardines Nursery float! It was beautiful!!! It was great weather too! Quite warm considering the past few parades ; )

I had the opportunity to meet and greet so many wonderful Clarkston residents and parade people before the parade even began in the 'warming room.' I wore a big poofy ball gown all white so that I looked like a Snow Queen!! It was a hit! Young and old alike loved the gown and the whole evening was magical!!

I had to have three people help me up a ladder, into a truck, to climb up on the flaot!! It was hysterically funny as my gown was so 'poofy' I couldn't see steps or anything for that matter!! But once I sat in the chair my gown was 'fluffed' and I was ready to wave with joy and enthusiasm to the excited crowd!! I have seen plenty of lighted parades while interning at the Walt Disney World Company, but this was my first time in a lighted parade and I wouldn't have missed it for the world!!
