Well, it’s almost time for the Lighted Christmas Parade again, and we are running a little behind in our preparations. It doesn’t help that the forecast is supposed to be very cold – the high next Saturday is only going to be 31. I hope we have a good number of kids turn out.
Anyway, this weekend was spent getting the float out of the storage shed and assessing the damage. Last year we bought all new wheels, but this year we needed two more since they went flat and won’t hold any air.
On the plus side, when I was buying tires, I bought myself a new drill! It’s smaller and lighter than our other drills. I hurt my elbow last year with all the lifting and drilling at awkward angles, so I think I’ll write this purchase off for medical reasons. 😉
So, here we go.
Brad says
How did you get that inside? Is it narrow enough to fit through a door?
Lauren says
It comes apart in several pieces and the top and bottom (tipped on edge) just squeeze through a door. This thing gets disassembled twice each year. Once to get it in the school, another to get it out.
Thank you, Deborah. 🙂
Deborah says
That float looks very nice in the parade. I think it’s the best one.
Aunt Lolly says
I love it Lauren! You did an awesome job!
Kristi says
I read recently that the inn was not really like our concept of a hotel. It was more likely a larger home for all of the family, and there were so many family members already in the home that there was no room for Mary and Joseph.
It’s nice to see that you made room in the inn for your stable.
