How many of the rest of you hung out with Jesus clowns this weekend?
No? Nobody? Well I did.
I also hung out with Slash, his busty girlfriend, Florence Henderson and Cheer Bear
CARE BEAR STARE!
Oh, where was I? That’s right.
That’s right, the 500 Festival parade, you know, the whole Indy 500 thing that happened on Sunday?
See, here’s Danica Patrick. She’s totally fierce.
Speaking of fierce, HOLY WINNER OF ANTM!
Not so fierce…these dresses.
Also not fierce. This job.
But alas, he was getting paid for this. I do it for free.
Speaking of free, here’s Uncle Sam.
He got a little tripped up just past Monument Circle. I was hoping he’d bust free but they got the balloon under control. Darn.
300,000 people go to this parade. I pretty much had the sweetest seat in the house.
Unfortunately the first parade the moosh ever went to was the Parade of Dreams at Disneyland. She pretty much thought this parade was a snooze fest. Bummer.

I know it’s childlike, but I love parades. LOVE THEM. You most definitely had a fabulous seat.

I’ve lived in Indy almost my entire life, and I still have never made it out for the parade. Jealous! Great pics…

I don’t get the Jesus clowns. Also, Whitney looks much less “plus sized” than when she was on ANTM. Hmmmmm…. I can’t imagine anyone in the fashion industry encouraged her to lose some of the weight that made her so “juicy.” OK… done with the snark. Did you go to the race?

Nothing is going to beat the Parade of Dreams. Jesus the Clown kind of squicks me out, but to be fair, all clowns do!

The parade was pretty good this year. Not as many stars as last year but, oh well. I guess you can’t have McDreamy and McSteamy two years in a row. We found great seats on the circle right next to some Jesus clowns. Gotta love taking the family out for a nice day in the city and being told they are going to “that bad place” for watching TV.
Our family had a great time.

I didn’t know such a parade existed! Too bad all other parades were ruined for the moosh, because that one looked like a hoot.

Yeah, there’s nothing quite so anticlimactic like having starting your parade-watching career with the Parade of Dreams.

Aw c’mon. Florence Henderson in one of those dresses? Totally fierce. Or scary. Is there a difference?

Um…Jesus…clowns? Is that what it sounds like? Seems a tad sacreligious, if you ask me. And I gotta say, The Parade of Dreams sets a pretty high bar. But some of those floats were awesome, and those dresses looked like they were made of frosting or something.

Those are the Azalea Trail Maid’s dresses from my old stomping grounds in Mobile, AL!
Yes! They’re hideous! And cost as much as a compact car to make!

The ANTM winner looks a lot like the Watson Girl. I’m sure she was there too…because she is everywhere! “That’s Watsons!” It haunts my dreams…

The only parades we have are pretty much John Deere tractors and horses. Color me jealous.
And Danica SO got the shaft. (My mom’s a redneck. I was forced to watch the race on cable.)
