Art City Days Parade

Last week was Art City Days, and we love it. The carnival (except all the scummy carny rats, that find their way to Springville every year-yuck!), fireworks, scones :), hot air balloons, kids craft festival, and of course the parade. But what we LOVE the most is living in a small (yet growing quickly) town and the true sense of community that we have with our friends and neighbors. (this city girl has changed her ways). We were actually in the parade this year. Brent's company had an awesome float, and we drove the truck by default. Brent's dad was going to drive, but he had a brief hospital stay that kept him sidelined. Brittany, Paige, Taylor, Isaiah and Presleigh walked along side the float passing out candy, fliers, and the biggest hit was the water bottles. They all did a great job. Caroline got to help 'daddy drive', not really but we had to convince her so we could contain her. What a fun day!

Getting their instructions. Ready to go!
Smokey came and saw us while we waited for the parade to start.

Family Photo Op! there was an actually water fall (just not going yet). The float was AWESOME!
