Gracie's Girl Scout Troop entered a float into Rapid City's Parade of Lights which they worked on decorating for the past week. We offered to use our trailer for their float, so the rest of the family got to sit in the truck and experience it from a different point of view. We had an ABSOLUTELY perfect evening and it was all because it fit Lexie and Eli to a tee. We didn't have to fight the crowds, weren't freezing and no sensory overload due to the noise or the people. They had fun playing on the float until it was time to go and then watched it all happen from a safe and comfortable spot. It's always crazy how something so small can make a huge impact on our family while making it an enjoyable experience rather than a horrible one.
