Lewisville’s 32nd Annual Christmas Parade
This friendly smile and those puppy dog eyes adorned Lewisville’s 32nd Annual Christmas Parade.
Memorable Moments
As stated in my previous blog post, Ho Ho Ho!, I made lots of photos of Lewisville’s 32nd Annual Christmas Parade (held on Sunday, December 11, 2016). Although it took longer than I’d hoped to process all the photos — I confess I’m a bit picky — they’re finally ready to be shared.
Fire vehicles and a marching band make their way through Lewisville as a child with a Santa cap rushes to pick up candy in the street.
I began photographing where the parade started, in front of Lewisville United Methodist Church, and I eventually made my way to Shallowford Square, where I remained until Santa Claus passed by.
While it’s true that I didn’t actually want to walk any further than that, I mainly realized that Shallowford Square, with its border of lighted trees, could provide a really nice photographic backdrop. But enough of this chatter — let’s get to the photos!
Below are just a few of the scenes from Lewisville’s Christmas Parade. A separate photo gallery contains a total of 68 photos. The LINK to the gallery is at the very end of this blog post. I hope you enjoy the photos!

Lewisville’s 32nd Annual Christmas Parade
The Lewisville Civic Club hosted its 32nd Annual Christmas Parade on Sunday, December 11, 2016.
Directed by Maureen Barton, the parade featured lots of floats, several local high school marching bands, dance and drill teams, veterans, horses, dogs, fire trucks, military vehicles and classic and antique automobiles.
Lewisville’s main thoroughfare was packed with people — children, parents and adults of all ages. (Many folks had staked out their parade spot more than an hour ahead of time.)
With Christmas music playing at Shallowford Square prior to the parade’s start, anticipation was building as the three o’clock hour approached. And once the parade got underway, children — and many adults — just couldn’t get enough of the candy that parade participants tossed their way.
Without a doubt, in a little over an hour, Lewisville’s Christmas Parade was everything that makes a community parade a special experience.
Festive Photos Coming
Of course, I took lots of photos, and I can’t wait to share them with you. But it takes time to get them just right. Plus, I have a day job. So please be patient and check back here within the next few days to view the Lewisville Christmas Parade photo gallery.
Meanwhile, please share LewisvillePhotos.com with others who may be interested in the soon-coming Christmas parade photos.
Thank you, one and all!
