ACU Homecoming parade

We are not ACU alumni (Zach attended for one year), nor do we claim to have exceptional ACU
loyalty or spirit, but we do attend the ACU homecoming parade every year because, honestly, parades are free fun and entertainment, especially for kids. And when the parade is happening within walking distance of your home...you might as well go and have a front row seat for the band and the fire truck. This years parade theme seemed to have something to do with the circus, I think. The weather was beautiful! Owen and Clay enjoyed the parade "circus" with Mommy, Daddy and Honey. Here are a few of the most enjoyable moments:


The ACU band always kicks things off, so the start of the parade is eagerly anticipated!









Owen clapped for a good portion of the parade. He loves music and has excellent rhythm, so the ACU rhythmic group called "STEPS" was cause for much excitement and awe!











A surge of adrenaline and excitement always surrounds the fire engine, especially when it sounds it's sirens!






To top it all off, the ACU Wildcat actually waved at Owen! Following the wave, the Wildcat had to help out a stalled car in front of him.
Such excitement!
