Summerfest parade

Saturday was the Orem Summerfest and we walked in the parade with a bunch of other APX people!




We were waiting in line for our turn to go in the parade and the band was going past us and Robby started freaking out - he was so excited! He was saying, "mommy! Look! Band! Look! Band! Flag!" I started video taping - here he's mostly just in awe watching them go by and kind of dancing along.... he also was singing the cougar fight song as the passed - guess he still associates "band" with BYU games...


Robby and Hadley (Rachel Marshal's daughter) sat in this wagon (thanks Kristin!) and just had a ball the whole time! They were waving at people and Rob would pull Robby up to people and he wanted to hand out the water bottles... it was so cute!

Just as we were finishing the parade route the rain starting coming down! Tara and I took the kiddos to Hogi Yogi for shelter (and ice cream :) ) while we waited for the others to get our cars, left at the beginning of the route... then we waited around for the fireworks... Robby was a champ - it was 10 pm and he was still ready to play!


Until the fireworks actually started... then he was pretty nervous! But he calmed down and enjoyed most of it! :)


Just hanging out in Tara & Jeremy's truck watching the show!

It was a fun, exhausting day! (remember we hiked the Y that morning! didn't plan that out too well!)
