Strawberry Festival and Father's Day

 We signed up to be the parent chaperones for the royalty parade at the Marysville Strawberry Festival. 

We knew the Queen would be out of town and it would be just the two princesses on the float. 

But then the other princess tested positive for Covid so it would just be Presley on the float (which was kind of fun and a little awkward to dance by yourself up there for a whole parade route).

Harper decided she wanted to come with me so it was just us three.  

Presley did fabulous and even won the Royalty Award!




The festival admin had a nice reception prior to the judging. 
I knew the names of  Cashmere Royalty and saw the parent chaperones and went to introduce myself.
I told them that we had a child at Cashmere High and they are teachers there and knew Rylan. 
The dad was one of his teachers this year and the mom knew him from checking out books in the library. They told me they tried to talk him into playing tennis this past spring (the dad is the coach). 

I wanted to get a picture of the Sequim royalty for Papa Nelson. 
His brother, Dan, has lived there for many years. 





Presley was definitely missing her float mates!


At the line up...Harper was a banner carrier this time. 

It was an evening parade and the dark clouds helped make it look even darker than it really was. 



We stayed the night in Marysville and got up early on Sunday to leave. 
I knew Dave had bought movie tickets for the 12:30 Top Gun showing, and that Grandma and Papa Nelson were meeting us to watch it for Father's Day.  



I loved Harper's card for Dave 


We all enjoyed it!
We went out for Blue Spoon afterwards and then spent the rest of the day relaxing at home!

All the Kreider's have seen Top Gun now....
Samee and Nate went on Saturday evening. 
And Ryan, Mylee, Papa, Grandma, Amy and Thomas went on Memorial Day.
