Monday & Tuesday we didn't do too much.... just worked, cleaned the house, & sat around relaxing. Tuesday night Emilee & her friend Jessi went to the follies by themselves. Wednesday night we all (mom, dad, me, Dani, Emi, & Jessi) went to the follies. The follies were pretty good this year... different from how they've been in the past but it's always nice to mix it up a bit! I didn't have to work Thursday, Friday, or Saturday this week, so it was nice just to relax for a few days. :) On Thursday, the entire clan (Kara & her family came with us too) went to the follies again! It was a full house there in the HyArt, but it was lots of fun, and Kate & Jake thought it was the coolest thing....
Friday we spent the day cleaning the yard, relaxing, & visiting with my Aunt Lori & Aunt Phyllis. Later that afternoon while Kara was at her class reunion, I took Katelyn & Jacob to the Family Fun Fair. It was really hot there with no shade, but they both had fun to it was worth it! :D We all headed down to Minchow's Food Court where the Cowley Boys were playing. That is one of my favorite things about Lovell's Days (besides the fireworks). I got to visit with a bunch of my friends that I haven't seen for a while down there.
Saturday morning at 10:00 was the Kiddie Parade. Jacob rode his scooter & Emi walked with him. He looked so cute, but it was pretty cold because of the wind & rain that we got, so he wore Emi's jacket! Katelyn didn't want to do it this year so she hung out with us at the drug store & watch Jake go by.
After the Kiddie parade, we hung out at the drug store until the parade started. We watched in front the the drug store (like always)... It was a long parade this year, mostly because it's time for elections & everyone that's running had something in the parade. Once the parade was over, we waited at the drug store until 1:00 because my dad closed the store then. The rest of the afternoon, we spent hanging out at the house, eating BBQ sandwiches, visiting, relaxing, & making some yummy treats for later in the night.
Around 8:30 we had a caravan going on the way out to Horseshoe Bend for the fireworks. We had a pretty good spot & had a great view of the fireworks. Jake still isn't a huge fan of them, so he sat in the car when they started & plugged his ears. At least this year he watched them, instead of hiding under the blanket the whole time. We got back into town around 11:30, & I spent the last bit of the night hanging out with Michael until I went to sleep.
This week has been so fun, & I can't believe it's already over... Summer is just flying by & with all the cool weather we've been having, it feels like it's barely beginning!!
