katie invited us to go to orem summerfest with her and the kids. we weren't sure if we were going to go because it was so windy and cold. i am not a parade lover. i can't remember the last time i went to a parade, but i am so excited to see a parade through the eyes of my kiddos. highlights...
-darn windy and really cold!
-parked at a church parking lot that ended up being really far away
-conrad wanting to hold his oreo shake even though his little fingers were cold
-seeing jack look at everything
-unprepared with no blankets...thanks to katie for hers!
-paul asking over and over again..."where is the candy?" "didn't they used to throw candy?' "where is the candy?"
-when they did throw candy, paul was out there so fast
-when the pepsi truck came by, conrad said "look lala, it's the juice man"
-hardly any floats
-a lot, a lot of families
-by the time we left, it was even colder and conrad was wearing most of his shake
-watched the fireworks from our house whilst we drank hot chocolate
-ash

The cold canyon winds were blowing that day...the things we do for our kids. Glad Paul got his candy; that's what I remember from parades also. Bet the best part of the celebration was watching the fireworks that night. PS. Love Phoebe's expression...it says it all!
That's one parade we really missed being at... not.
Except maybe that you guys were there!
