Cousin day & an indoor parade!

GO UTES! The kids all wanted their pictures taken with this float!
Smartie Kat found out that the Days of '47 parade does a float preview that's FREE a couple of days before the parade. So, we decided to make that our cousin day! We also called Staci and her kids since we were in their neck of the woods to come meet us there! We had a great time and it was fun to see the floats close-up. We even participated in the 'people's choice' award by voting for our favorite float!
We first met up with the cousins at Crown Burger and even had Stacie G. come from work and meet us! Then, we arrived at the parade and the first thing we saw was FREE face-painting (they work off tips). Brandon HAD to be Spiderman! We waited a LONG time for the face painting, but it was worth the wait! Brandon looked awesome! Brandon and Tate with their cool faces!
Our girlies all looked beautiful! Amanda, friend Susie, diva Sydney and Rachel!
Kate & Elyse

The Murray Park float....oh, we were sentimental!
There was also a cute Noah's ark float:

We love the Jazz float!

What? Who is Staci making out with? Oh!! Kyle Korver!!!
The kids hung out with Jack Sparrow for some candy....they were a little scared to go over and chat with the pirates...

And the girls love the parade princesses!

That looks like it was a lot of fun...too bad we weren't still in town, I would have loved to go see all of those. The Noah's Ark one is my fave.

That was so much fun, we should make that a yearly activity. Zach's favorite was the Jazz float. Great pics
