We headed early toward the parade route. We met up with the men of the group who camped out overnight, and settled into our spot. We really enjoyed the parade in the shade most of the time. I even saw a celebrity of sorts- Nienie! I almost cried, seeing her for real! I felt kinda silly, but it was a neat experience for me.

Some cousins waiting for the parade to start.
Broccoli anyone?? Jay loves it!
One of the floats in the Provo parade. A bit creepy but pretty cool.
It was hot, HoT, HOT!!! After the parade we all headed over to Carl and Annas church and had a pizza party lunch and some fun playing with bubbles, balls, and each other in some A/C!
We headed back to Ben and Amy's and had some fun with a homemade pinata. It broke after only 3 hits! Aubrey is a STRONG little girl! Then the whole Peterson family took some pictures in our new matching flag shirts (thank you mom!!)
Daddy and Aubrey, just moments before the pinata broke!
All of us! 11 adults, 12 grand kids. Still growing with one more on the way in October! (no, not me...)
We had some more down time with games and movies, and then headed toward BYU to see the fireworks. The show started really late, but it was a good one!

Fun, we spent 4th of July in Provo last year and this summer my kids were begging to go back again. Can't believe your guys camped out for the parade! We went about an hour before and found a pretty good spot, but of course there were only 8 of us, compared to your big group, that's small!
