PARADE PREPARATIONS

Wow!!  What a week!  The Gilbert Days Parade went very well thanks to a lot of hardwork from family members.  Here are some pictures during the construction of our float this year. 

First is the cut outs for our Guitars.  The theme this year was Rock N Rodeo, so we decided to make two eight foot guitars.



The guitars were then painted white and mounted to the float.


Next we painted the guitars yellow and hooked the float to Davids Expedition along with another trailer that will hold the flowers to handout during the parade.  By this time we had mounted the chairs for the float riders, attached the rose petals to the corners, and fixed a flat tire!  This test run hopefully does not reveal any problems. 







SO FAR SO GOOD! 
The float was really coming together now. 
The next steps were to prepare for the gluing of rose petals to the float.
