This year I was NOT (Yay!!!) in charge of the La Verkin Pioneer Day celebration! So I got to enjoy it a little more... It started with a parade of some of the primaries, our kids got to ride their bikes and decorate them, my intention was for Lyv to ride her scooter and Carly to ride her big wheel type bike, well I totally forgot and grabbed Carly's scooter too. If you could only experience the snail-like speed that she puts out on that thing... You would have been mad at yourself too, but i figured 'what the heck?' I told Lyv "Do NOT leave your sister, okay?" "Okay mom!" So this is the girls at the beginning of the parade, where I left them to go find Joey and Kai.
"LYV! Where's Carly!?" "Back there somewhere!" "I told you not to leave her!!" Get this, she says, "I didn't! She left me!" Riiiiiiiiight.....
Well, we found her! Thank you Daniella!!! (someone else was carrying her scooter) Daniella said she was falling behind all the other kids, so she graciously scooped her up!
Kai had no competition for candy!
After the parade there were all kinds of races for all ages. Kai went first, his motivation was the sucker Joey pulled out of his mouth and ran to the finish line!
Carly trotted to the finish line, she did really well!
Lyv ran her little guts out, but stopped before she got to the finish line to watch the other kids.
I'm not sure that any of the kids are as competitive as their dad... Look at his face. (I giggle whenever I look at this picture!) I'm not allowed to discuss the outcome of this race.
So, let's talk about this one!! Hi Brandi!
We totally kicked trash!! As in we beat most of those scrawny kids (Suttons), Ha!!
After the races, we went to the pavilion and watched people sing, Nate Johnson started to sing and the girls were absolutely mesmerized!!
