One of my favorite traditions of the year is the Box Elder County fair parade. I was bummed that Matt needed to travel so he could be home later in the week for other plans we had. So the kids and I headed up right after school got out. Usually Joy saves us a spot that she goes that morning to set up but with their mission this year they were out of town so we were on our own. Tiff and Ris decided to come down so they grabbed us a spot and then we just met up with them.
All of our kiddos plus one
To busy eating a popsicle to smile
Then we had a couple more days where kids didn't feel good Liam and Gracie were good sports but they seemed to rebound pretty quickly.
On Saturday with everyone feeling much better we headed to the farmers market on 25th St. It was so fun we got to try several things we had never had including Amish donuts. The girls each got a gem necklace and were fascinated by all the big gems they had available.
After a short reboot at home we headed to Tremonton for dinner and the Rodeo. The rodeo is another one of those things we look forward to throughout the year. We once again sent out texts and had a bunch of family want to join us on both sides.
The kids love when they come around and throw prizes. They were ready and willing at the rail
Something new this year was the bull jumping. I've never seen anything like that and it was both terrifying and amazing to watch it.
We should have taken a picture at the beginning by the end it was late and everyone was tired and wasn't wanting to take a picture.
On Sunday it was Kerry's birthday, No one had discussed doing anything so we called that morning and invited them to dinner to celebrate. It's a lot to host everyone but I feel obligated to invite everyone when we do Father's day/Mother's Day/Birthdays so we waited until last minute and when they had no plans we decided to make some.
We had cheesecake for dessert since its Kerry's favorite. It was a busy week but full of so many fun things and traditions.
