Box Elder County Parade/Fair/Rodeo

Wednesday as soon as Matt got home from work we headed to Tremonton for our annual tradition of going to the fair and the parade. Unlike other years the weather was perfect. It was overcast and probably mid 70's really the best weather we have ever had for the parade. We got there just in time for the parade to start. Lucky for us Matt's mom had saved a big space for us, Chris & Krissy, and since Nick & Brit decided to join us this year we had a full space. 
Here is the whole crew
 They handed out several(too many) popsicle in many forms. Most of them melted before they ever got eaten although the kids got to eat a few of them. Hallie wasn't feeling 100% and had a pretty good fever on and off most of the day but she acted fine for most of the time just hanging out and waiting for the candy.


 After the parade we were planning on going out to the fair for dinner and to the bulls only rodeo but the weather was looking pretty threatening. So we decided to head over to Matt's mom and dads and grab some dinner while we waited to see what the weather was going to do. While we got dinner going the kids jumped on the tramp...all of them!! Luckily they had Krissy there to make sure they were being safe.
Just as we got dinner dished up the weather showed its true colors and started to blow and rain so hard. With it pouring we passed on the fair and rodeo it wasn't worth getting soaked. The adults sat and tried to visit but some of the kids made it hard trying to "put on a play." Poor Gracie got hit with a broom and ended up with some pretty good bruising below her cheek. After that we decided to call it a night. We were so bummed that we didn't go to the fair for some "fair" food and I was so bummed I didn't get to go the the shopping booth that I love....oh well maybe next year. All in all it was a fun night spent with our little family.
