Parade

Last week Connor attended an art class where he made a very handsome dragonfly all out of trash (ahem, I mean treasure). The kids also made some noisemakers out of recycled plastic bottles. Last Friday night I was serenaded by this little contraption - on and off for several hours.


And on Saturday he got to show off his art in a parade celebrating 25 years of the Phipps Center for the Arts.


It was not your typical parade - no clowns, no candy. Fire trucks did not lead the parade but rather a giant eagle that was pilaged by pirates. Yes, pirates in a speed boat.


And this guy. I am not sure what/who he was but he was my favorite, not including the dragonfly of course.
