Three Kings' Day

The girls and I attended a Three Kings' Day event at our local library branch.  Many people in our neighborhood grew up celebrating Three Kings' Day, and it turned out to be a big, well-attended event.

First, the kids made crowns, naturally.


Then the band struck up a chord and we moved out to the streets!  We marched about two blocks and then were treated to sweets and free books.


I was really impressed with the turnout.  In fact, that was the only drawback of the event.  Our multitude overwhelmed the party space.  Many small children crowding around a sweets table at dinner time made for many unhappy campers.  We'll try again next year, without a stroller.  That was too much to maneuver, though it did carry a mighty load.

I believe that was our last Christmas event of the season.

Phew!
