4th of July Parade










Thanks to Becky Slinker and her friends who camped out on the street last night, we had great seats for the parade today. It was Isaac's first parade and he had such a great time. There were big balloons which he loved, firetrucks that sprayed water, tons of floats, royalty from the different town, tons of veterans and marching bands. I think some of the best things that were unique to this parade was the floats done by different stakes and institutes promoting Church ideas like Eternal Marriage or when the entire Provo, Utah Mission missionaries came marching singing "Called to Serve." They were greeted like local celebrities with kids running out to shake their hands and give them High Fives. I think they were received better than the BYU, U of U and UVU cheerleaders, basketball players and football players. We really enjoyed our self. I can't wait for fireworks tonight, but until then, this will need to do. Enjoy!
