Every summer we love to go to the parades. Coming from San Jose I never saw a town parade before. So when I moved here I thought it was the best thing ever! All summer long each town has a week where they celebrate. It usually comes with a parade, carnival, craft boutique, rodeo, and fireworks. I love fireworks. I got that from my mom. Shaylie loves to watch fireworks too as long and we aren't too close. Briggs has really gotten into them this year. This year briggs and wade went and helped grandpa with the horses and wagon in the pleasant grove parade. Briggs was so cute all decked out in his cowboy gear.
Shaylie and I got to sleep in! we need our beauty sleep. We went to the parade to watch all of them and see at the floats. Because it was just shaylie and I sitting together, everyone wanted to throw candy just to her. Shaylie didn't mind at all. She was happy to make it to the parade. They always want to go. I realized when I was sitting there that I was way to big to be sitting in the heat. This baby felt huge and I was sweating like a pig. It was nasty. The second the parade was over we were in the car turning the ac on full blast.
Sometimes I forget that wade and I come from such different backgrounds. Briggs is taught by his dad to pee outside like a cowboy. something us city folk never did. Also rodeos, horses, small town justice. But our kids will know both these worlds. They love to go shopping and to the movies but also can stay at grandpas farm all day with no complaint.
Our friends the Roden's wanted to go with us to a rodeo, And it my book that means the pleasant grove rodeo. It's the best. Strawberries and cream, good entertainment, good cowboys, and fireworks. It is a great show. We took the kids and they loved it. The firework show was amazing. They asked wade tons of questions about rodeo and wade loved it! he felt like a pro. It was a great night. Gotta love wade's roots.
