Pioneer Youth Parade

This year the kids got to participate in the youth parade for the pioneer celebration. At first the kids had a hard time because we had to line up like an hour before the parade actually began and it was really hot. But as soon as Grandpa showed up they were in better spirits. Dave was super tired because he had just gotten home the night before really late from a training in texas. But the whole experience was really fun we were even on t.v. Our stakes float won the theme award so it was going to be in the pioneer day parade on that coming Monday. The theme was scripture power and all the kids got to make their own shirts. The kids were also given stickers with the names of pioneer children that walked the plaines. it was really neat to see all the kids representing a different pioneer child. After the parade there was a carnival for the kids. it was pretty packed so we didn't stay that long.
