We had been in Winslow for about 5 days and we had many reasons for this, but we went back to Show Low for the weekend. We left Wednesday morning after going to a pancake breakfast for the scout troop in our new ward and got to Show Low just as the parade was ending. I was a little bummed about missing the parade, but it worked out good. We went straight to the Whipples house and had a BBQ with them for lunch. Then it was nap time for the boys so we headed out and got set up at the Pratts house, where we hung out until dinner time at the Wests. My good friend Sam was there from out of town and it was a lot of fun and our kids got to hang out. Then that night I ended up taking just Kayton to the fireworks with the Pratt's. He stayed awake the whole time and loved watching them. It was a blast.
The next two days, we stayed in Show Low so that Nate could work at the school maintenance department to make just a little more money. I just hung around, but we needed to stay until the weekend because Nate's brother Joseph and his girlfriend came in from out of town on Saturday. We wanted to hang out with them so we planned a whole lunch thing out at Grandma Brewer's house. It worked out so perfect that Nate's sisters, Michelle and Marlene, had work off that day and Michelle had her two girls with her too and we were all able to hang out for the first time in a few years I think. We looked at old pictures and ate food, everyone played with our boys and we just had fun being together for a few hours. We needed to get on the road to come back to Winslow though so we left and now we are home. It was a good trip.
