Wong´s annual parade turns 25!

We've been exhausted all day yesterday, but it was a good exhausted. We had a blast on Sunday.  Wong´s annual parade will always hold a special place in my heart. I have the best memories of this event.

I remember attending with my parents and my sister since I was like... a year or two old! We used to live in Miraflores, where the parade takes place, so it was something we couldn´t miss! So many people come for this parade (reporters even said that this year there were more than 50,000 people... Wow! Can you picture that?). It's like a very important reunion every year. 

Family and friends get together and sit and watch the parade that passes right in front of them. And this year, thanks to our Wong friends, we had Prime seats! 

This year we were really looking forward to it and we went with my sister and my brother in law who had never had the chance to enjoy it before. I am so happy my little princess could experience it too. This was Micaela's 1st time viewing the parade. And she got it right away! It was wonderful to see my little one just sit and watch the entire thing while eating all the goodies mommy and daddy had bought. 

Seeing her face light up at the fire trucks and how happy she got when the clowns appeared. That's the memories I have from being little. The ones I cherish so, I hope she holds onto these little things. Someday, she will realize how big they actually are. 

We arrived home and Micaela was already asleep. She truly enjoyed the parade and Pablo and I enjoyed it twice as much as her just by seeing our little lovie so happy and mesmerized. I think her favorites were the dragons, the lions, the clowns, the toys from Hasbro, and the huge dinosaur from the movie: A night at the Museum.

I love making these memories, even if she is young and may not totally remember them. 

And of course, one more time, I must say: Thank you Wong for changing our lives and making them happier and more special every day!
