07.04.2011 Evan's first July 4th Parade

Evan was sleeping by the time the fireworks went off last night (7/4), so he didn't get to see any fireworks.  But he did get to see his first July 4th parade, which occurs in many towns all over the bay area and throughout the country.  We went to the Rose White Blue (http://www.rosewhiteblueparade.com/) parade in San Jose, near the Rose Garden district.  We watched at the end of the parade route.  The parade started at 10am about a mile and a half away, so it was probably about 10:40 by the time we saw the first cars/people.  Evan was excited about the parade, there were tons and tons of kids there.  He even clapped his hands in delight as others clapped at the first paraders.  Here are some pictures from the parade:
