Floats...

So the Wellington Pioneer Day parade is no Days of '47 parade, but we have fun regardless.  This year I had the joy, the privilege, of making not one, but two floats.  Yep, I'm that special, lol.  Rory is on city council and is over Wellington Rec. so Debbie and I made a ghetto float.  Seriously, we were so proud of that float until I saw what real floats look like!  Anyway, we did a pretty good job for having a $0 budget and 0 time.  After working on that float I helped with our ward float.  It turned out really good.  Joan Powell was in charge and she is really a go getter.  She added this huge spinning barrel on it that had pictures of all the businesses in Wellington.  It turned out super cute and both floats won ribbons in the parade.  Wellington Rec float won the Mayor's Choice award and Wellington 2nd Ward won Best Use of Theme.  Speaking of Wellington 2nd Ward, I was just made 2nd counselor in Young Women's.  I'm excited to be back in there since last time I was in the YW Presidency I was only in for about 9 months before I was released.  I think it will be a very rewarding experience although I'm going to miss being a teacher in the Primary so much.  I love singing (even though I'm not very good at it) so I always look forward to singing time.  I guess I will just have to sing my heart out in Young Women's. :)

Here are some pictures of our awesomely awesome floats:
