after staying up late to ring in the new year and then wish mr. pike a happy birthday (12:17 a.m.), we took a nap and then headed over to the tournament of roses parade. mr. pike and uncle b. kindly headed over earlier (4:30 a.m.) to save seats for the rest of us.
it just so happened that this year our nephew and niece and their high school marching band were in the parade. we met up with my brother and his family and in-laws -- enjoyed some cinnamon rolls, loud horns, and beautiful sunshine.
grandpa boyack got the crowd primed to cheer for my nephew and niece when their band marched by. luckily they weren't playing so they could hear our shouts!
(mr. pike and i were so preoccupied with cheers that we forgot to take any pics of our musicians.) here are a few pics from our parade-watching adventure.
