Sturgis Fall Parade


Two weeks ago, we were able to participate in a famous yearly parade part of the Sturgis Falls festival here in Cedar Falls. Dan led the GT Church band in a 17 song set in a 45 minute route throughout downtown Cedar Falls. The band did an AMAZING job. I was sooo proud of GT Band and SUPER proud of my hotty hubby Dan! We received so much positive feedback from people that saw us. We even heard people passing by talking about how rockin the music was coming from the GT Church float. PRAISE JESUS! So glad we could rock it out for Him. The decorations were designed, started, and completed the day before the parade. They turned out pretty good for one day of work. But the silhouettes of our trees at the ends are not seen in these pictures because a few minutes before the parade started they were chopped in half by the wind:( My camera went down right before the parade started so I was unable to get some good float in action photos. The pictures below were taken by one of our church members who was in the crowd. I wish I could have got some closer but am thankful for being able to retrieve these.
Sweet, beautiful Amy! SHE"S GETTING MARRIED in DECEMBER!

There were a few close calls of falling off when the truck jolted.
We had some kids follow behind the float with signs and balloons and their KMotion T shirts.
