The parade that never ends - the Cascade 4th of July parade!
We all were excited for the parade to start - the kids came pedaling by up the long, steep hill with their bikes all flagged up, the fighter jets passed over us a few times and the sirens were all making noise. So how did this 4th of July staple go so wrong??? Well after 2 hours it still kept coming around the corner. It was truly the never ending parade! Every person in West Michigan with an old car or running for office was in this parade. Car after car plastered in Vote for... It was sad to see how lenient the parade planners were. What kids (or parents) really want to spend over two hours at the parade? Not the Soets
Charlie needed to get home & so did Steve! Steve loaded us all into the car and joined the parade in progress! I was pretty embarassed but the kids loved waiving at everyone - so did Steve! Once I heard some lady shout at her kids to "waive at those cute kids" I was having enough fun with it to jump out and take a picture of the first Soet entry in the parade!

Kristen, that's hilarious!! The cascade parade it ridiculously long. We've changed over to the Ada parade, less than 40 minutes, and in my opinion, MUCH more fun for my kids ages!!
Great pics, congrats on the parade entry!!!!
I'm cracking up over your entry into the parade. So glad you hopped out and took a picture! Glad to hear you had a great 4th!
