The only time we'll probably ever see it "snow" in Southern CA

All of these photos were taken by my wonderful aunt, Tami! My camera wasn't coming out quite as clear, and I gave up...plus, when I'd look at her screen, they were coming out perfectly! LOL.

The parade was so much fun! The weather was warm, so it didn't exactly feel Christmasy, but it was probably better that we weren't all freezing out there, trying to take pictures and everything. It was really exciting to see how the TV filming part of the parade worked. It was cool to see the cameras getting the shots, while the bands, etc. were having to work around cameras that were in the middle of the route. You never realize just how much it takes to put on such a production like this; major props to those guys! It's a tradition, and year after year, people really look forward to it. Great way to spend time with the family, see some celebrities, and get into the holiday spirit.

The parade will be on the Hallmark Channel, Monday, December 12th from 6-8 P.M. and the Hallmark Movie Channel, Friday, December 16th from 6-8 P.M as well :)

That's all for now,
Shelby
