We had the chance to go with my friend Kim and her family to the Days of '47 Parade this past month. I remembered to bring my camera...but forgot my memory card. Darn it! Nice Kim was sweet enough to give me some pictures and I wanted to remember this fun day. We love this parade and went
last year and the
year before.

Kim's family gets to the parade route EARLY. I felt so lucky that they were nice enough for us to sit with them as they were so close and we got there about 10 minutes before the parade began.

I think this was the most fun I have ever had at a parade. This family was so fun and kept us laughing. They were cheering everyone on, starting waves with the crowd and getting those in the parades to put on shows for us. It was a blast.

President Monson was in the parade this year. I love that everyone stood in respect and cheered as he went by.

He was so close to us. I have never seen a prophet so close (oh except that time Josh and I went to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas concert and were on the second row, kitty corner from President Hinckley. I think I watched him through the whole concert.) It was awe inspiring to see him so close.

This was one of my favorite floats. The floats are are all so well done. I always just sit and try to figure out
how in the world these floats are made. Whomever does them are pretty cool.

It was so neat to see all of the military in the parade.

We had so much fun at the parade! Thanks Kim and Cody for letting us come with you! Later on that day we went to
Kennecott Copper Mine and a BBQ with some wonderful people in our new ward. It was a grand day.
