We had a fun holiday. Jordyn got to go to her first parade and she had a ball. She is quite the trooper. The sirens and shooting of the guns didn't even make her cry. The weather was great too, because it was just a little over cast so it kept the sun from blaring down on us.
We hung out with the entire family at the parade, like we do every year. It is tradition and I love it.
Alexis was much more onto the whole parade thing this year, She was out there trying to get all the candy and otter pops she could. Good thing she had Carter and Landen there to help her out. She wasn't quite as quick as the rest of them. Are those just the cutest kids yuo have ever seen? :)
We then went to my parents and had our tradtional lunch BBQ. Rusty was so tired he Fell asleep in the middle of eating. (Not really. I think I am the only one in the family that falls asleep while eating.) He was just taking a little nap. So Alexis figured he would be a good table and set her plate on him and then I saw Wyatt standing next to him with a toy that played music and he told Rusty when he woke up that he "was playing music to help him sleep."
Here are the girls hanging out with their friends at the BBQ.
Alexis had a lot of fun with the sparklers. She was really too young last year to do much with them. She would just sit mesmorized watching it and not know what was going on around her. It was quite funny. And she couldn't get enough of the pop's either. She found some at home the next day and had to pop them all.
Watching Fireworks with daddy. At first she was terrified of the big ones, but ones she realized that they weren't going to hurt her she was fine. Jordyn liked all the fireworks. She even stayed up long enough to see the begining of the big show, but soon gave in and went to sleep. Our BBQ was right next to Highland High so we got to see the Sugar House fireworks. I had never seen them before. They were pretty nice.
