For All Softie Lovers!!!! 1st Annual SoftieThanksgiving Day Parade

1st Annual Softie Thanksgiving Day Parade

This parade will be broken into three different parts so everyone can get a really good look at all the work the Parade participants put into their entries. Today we'll be winding down Main Street, tomorrow we'll be heading up 5th Avenue and finally we'll take a trip down Santa Claus Lane. Voting will be set up by Sunday, November 25th and the Top 5 Entries receiving votes will be announced on Saturday December 1st. You may notice a number at the beginning of each entries description. Make note of it because you'll need it for the voting. I'll have the name of the parade piece on the poll but it helps to have the numbers beside them now so you can jot down your favorites as you view them. Anyway, sit back and enjoy the Parade!
