The 24th of July!

In Utah the 24th of July is a BIG deal... the whole town was a flutter with festivities!!  We got up early and headed out to the parade, after that we ate lunch at The old spaghetti factory and then went to the movie "Despicable Me" we had a fun day and remembered our pioneer heritage!
Waiting for the parade to start!

Watching the parade!

James and Violet watching the parade!

After the parade we went out to "The old Spaghetti Factory"

We got to eat in the train booth!

How fun! Parades are always fun, kids love them. I think that is so cool that you can celebrate your pioneer heritage with so many activities. I was horrible, this year, I thought about it in passing on the day....I need to be better next year.
