Pioneer Day

I felt like we didn't do much all summer, so I was happy when I felt up to driving down to Mapleton for their big Pioneer celebration.  

We met up with Lisa and her kids, Kim and Madison, Sami, Abby and their friends and a little later my Mom, Anna, Neinah and Ryan came too!

Last year it almost rained us out, this year was just the same.

The light rain just cooled things off and made for a perfect night!

Of course Jack was wishing he could win a bike....

The helicopter came and dropped all of the ping pong balls for the children.

None of us won a bike, but it was still fun.

Then the band started to play and the little girls loved dancing!

The band this year was AMAZING!

"the party crashers"

I hope they are there again next year!

Ella had only just gone to the stadium of fire and Maisy hadn't even been to a "concert" before so they thought it was WAY COOL!

They got right up front! You can see Ella and Maisy if you looks close!

Of course Jack was being so shy.

He needed his Daddy to help him get in on the fun!

Good thing Sami was there (like always!) to help with Lilly. She's a wild girl and just about ran off a couple of times.

Then it was fireworks time!

They are the best I've ever seen! They just about took my breath away!

The girls were more interested in meeting some of the band members....

It was such a great night! We had so much fun!!

Happy Pioneer Day!!!!!
