Yes! We Did Survive!

Our little hoop troop made our spectacular, sparkly and flashy mark on the Labor Day Parade, unfortunately I forgot my camera, so I'm still waiting for some other folks pictures. Here's the one picture Tank Poppa took of us, um... a few minutes after we had passed him!
It was crazee hot and sunny, but we managed to not lose anyone to heat stroke, fortunately! (Not even the pregnant gal!) In the end I did have help with the costumes, another gal made 4 of the 10 skirts, thank heavens! All the neighbors came out to support us and cheer for us, which was great! Not that I expect grand prize or anything, but we were so hot and thirsty afterward that we totally forgot to attend the award ceremony! I know we rocked that parade, and were much more exciting to see than yet another fire engine! (And we were almost as loud!) And we carried these snazzy signs, made by yours truly. (P.S. Thanks to all the friends and family members that I grilled endlessly about what vegetable slogans were the funniest!)All in all it was a wonderful success and I have a whole crew of folks I can now call on to do crazy things with me! Yay Suziehulahoop!
