In the parade...

"Radiant joy is everywhere
Spirits in tune to the spicy air,
Thrill in the glory of each day.
Life's worth living when we say, November"

This weekend is homecoming for the high school in the town where Ryan works as the market leader for Capital City Bank. His office decided sort of at the last minute to enter the parade so they didn't put together a float but they did want a presence in the parade. He went and picked up Libby from afterschool (because if you can't have a beautiful float you need a beautiful little girl!!) They threw out candy to the crowds and apparently they were a big hit. Ryan said that Libby was a little hesitant the first couple of times she tossed the candy but then she really got into it and they both ended up having a great time.

Here's the one and only picture from the evening (Ryan is in the "Twinkle" costume - which is the "mascot" for Capital City Bank). By the way, it was my idea to attach the Capital City sign to the side of Jason's truck. They were just planning on riding in the back of the truck and tossing out candy. Capital City has such a large presence in the town where Ryan works people would have instantly recognized the trademark star on the Twinkle costume but I thought it certainly couldn't hurt to have some signage on the truck, too!
