Did you make it to the big Christmas parade in Lewisville? I hope so, because this year’s parade seemed bigger and better than ever!

My apologies for being so late getting today’s post up. But I think the wait was well worth it, as I’ve prepared a load of photos for you! They’ve been carefully whittled down from the gazillions that I took throughout the parade.

If you weren’t able to attend the parade, I think viewing the photos will give you a sense of what it was like. And for those of you who did attend, you’ll get to relive some of the parade moments; plus, depending on where you were located along the route, you’ll probably also see some interesting scenes that you missed.

Just head on over to the Lewisville Christmas Parade photo gallery and enjoy scenes of this year’s parade. It’ll probably take you 10–15 minutes to get through all the photos, as there are 322 distinct photos in the gallery.

And if you would, please take a moment to leave a brief comment about the parade or the photos. I’d love to hear from you!

REMINDER! Lewisville’s Christmas Parade is held every year on the second Sunday in December at 3:00 PM.

    Hi there!

    I wanted to say that the parade was awesome and we really enjoyed it. It was my first time in it and I was really honored to be in it. Also, the Kitt replica that I spent 4 years building finally paid off!

    The pics you took of the parade were nice and wonderful. Also the one of me. 🙂

    It shows what kind of community we are and that we are just a nice decent small town and the people have fun in what they do and they make friends.

    Your pictures from the parade are wonderful. I really enjoyed going through each one. Some of them are priceless. I plan on sharing this website with everyone so that they can enjoy the pictures as well. Thank you for the great job. Happy Holidays!

  3. Hey, Gary! I’m glad you enjoyed your very first participation in the parade. And congrats on completing your Kitt replica after four years — and getting to show it off in the parade. That must have felt great. I’m glad you liked your photo. I totally agree with you about the great community we have here. It’s a fine place to live, with some great folks, too. Thanks a lot for writing. Do come back!

  4. Robin, thank you for your kind words about my photos. I’m really glad you enjoyed going through them — that’s music to my ears! Yes, please do share the website as much as you can! Best to you.

    Most people try to include too much in the picture. If you are photographing a child playing on the lawn, photograph the child, not the trees, the house, and everything else in sight. Photography is really a simple statement; and the clearer it is, the better. —Eliot Elisofon
