06/07/2004 Archived Entry: "Electrical Parade"

Tabitha has been really wanting to see the Electrical Parade at California Adventure. It only runs on the weekends right now, so we headed down there last night to see it. When we walked into Adventure, there were already people sitting down even though there was an hour and 15 minutes until the parade start time. So we sat. It was cold, but the pavement had retained all the heat of the day so it was like sitting on an electric blanket, lol (minus the softness, of course). We're used to waiting an hour, but this was a little longer and I knew Tabi was cold, so I went to their book store and bought a princess coloring and activity book. It was chock full of activities which is important, because Tabitha rarely colors. She loves to draw and color on blank paper, but she's not into coloring books. So she passed the time doing crossword puzzles (which she's very into right now) and word searches and such. She was sitting next to another litter girl, and since she was also 5, they were the best of friends within 5 minutes. So the two of them oohed and aahed over the parade together and wore out their arms waving to all the characters.

Not much on the agenda for today other than lunch with my mil. Just hanging around and doing whatever, I guess.
