Them Crazy Swedes!

On Saturday the 17th, Farmington, MI had their annual founders parade. Grandpa George's Swedish club entered their big Viking helmet float and Tadj, Sofia, and Grayson all got to ride on it. Grandpa George had made cute little folk costumes for the kids, but it was just WAY too hot to wear them. Instead, they got cute little yellow shirts and blue shorts to represent the colors on the Swedish flag. Scarlett and Mom watched the Parade (and got all the loot!) with Grandma Gay and Grandpa George. Above is Scarlett walking (and walking... and walking) with Grandpa after the parade.
Scarlett just looking cute of course.
Tadj and the kids on the float. It was a LONG, HOT morning and Sofia wasn't too happy.


(She's really good at being cute)

Grayson and Sofia on the float BEFORE the parade started... notice they're still smiling at this point.
