7-25-2016 - Pioneer Parade and Fireworks

Well we debated about going to the parade, but decided last minute and I mean last minute 8:30am to go. We got dressed, packed up, grabbed some food on the way, meet at Kali's and then raced down to the parade route, hoping for a spot. Well we got a spot - a front row spot, after I asked someone about the roped off area and being able to sit in front of it. We were in the sun, but brought 2 shade umbrellas and enjoyed ourselves immensely!

Kids had fun and stayed put. Logan stayed put and I didn't really ever have to leave my seat on the ground to go and get him. Way beyond surprised that it happened and so happy about it. 


Kara and Leili did pretty good together.



Logan dancing to the Bag Pipers.

We enjoyed seeing all of our troops in the parade.

I brought water bottles to the parade for a quick cool down. It helped immensely!



Walking back to our cars, Matt spotted himself on a billboard for Comic Con. He was so excited!

He is the guy with the green hat and purple glasses on behind Batman.




 After the parade, we went back home and spent the evening at home until it was time to go to the fireworks. Logan fell asleep on the way there and stayed asleep until I woke him up while we were going to the bathroom at a gas station near the fireworks area.



Family picture before it got to dark.


Matt and Shawn ended up taking the kids "pokemoning" while we waited for the fireworks.
