Fun in Morganville

Sept. 10th, we headed to Morganville, KS to join in the 125th Anniversary of this great town! Grandpa and Grandma Parry missed all the fun because they were vacationing in Hawaii so I tried to take a lot of pictures so they could see all the action! Brynn and I dropped Layne and Caden off at the car show so they could get Layne's Mustang cleaned up for the parade and then we headed into Clay Center to our favorite doughnut shop--Tasty Pastry!

Brynn--enjoying every second of her chocolate log!

We brought yummy doughnuts back for the boys and Aunt Kristi and enjoyed looking at the old cars and tractors.


Kristi and Brynn checking out the race car.
It was then time for the Morganville Parade--Jess brought Conner and Greyson up to watch the parade with us. Brynn and Caden chose to ride in the parade with Aunt Kristi in her limo!

Here are the Grand Marshals of the Parade!

An old Morganville Firetruck

Cool old tractors

And here comes the Parry's--we had 4 cars entered in the parade--and they could have done more--we just ran out of drivers! You can see three of them below.

Aunt Kristi's 1989 Black Limo!

Layne's Mustang

Craig's Mustang--driven by David Parry

Terri Parry's 2009 Challenger--driven by Curt Parry


The kids loved this big sprayer in front of the Challenger!

One of the floats with Miss Morganville on board--he/she was quite the crack-up!

Grandma Parry's wonderful Lion's Club float.

The parade was almost an hour long so when the kids got done riding in the limo--they ran back to watch the rest of the parade and get some candy action!

The four cousins waiting for candy--Brynn, Caden, Greyson, and Conner

Go get it--CANDY!

How many pieces can my little hands hold!

Playing with older cousin James in the corn pit.
I think we need a corn pit to play in--the kids loved shoveling and digging in this stuff--and then Caden found out they hid money in it...one happy boy!

Great Grandma and Aunt Kathy helping serve up all the burgers for the BBQ that night!

Caleb, Kristi's fiance, and his roommate Michael were in charge of the beer garden.
I think they were kept busy most of the day!

The evening ended with a great firework show around 9:00 and some good dance music as well. The weather was perfect and we all enjoyed our day in Morganville, KS!
