Pioneer Day and Friends

Pioneer Day is fun to celebrate here.  We were able to go to our Stake celebration since Nate was helping out with one of the games. We got to go last year and the boys had a lot of fun.  First they started off with a yummy pancake breakfast.  The to kick off the activities, they started with a kids pioneer walk.  I thought it was just going to be kids walking around the field in pioneer  clothes, but they actually had 2 pioneer handcarts that they used to pull the younger kids in and the bigger kids helped pull them.  The kids loved riding in it and I thought it was really cute.  
When they got done, it was time for games.  They had a bounce house, stick pull and Nate was in charge of a 3 legged race.  There was cotton candy and snow cones too.  The kids had a lot of fun and so did we.

After the celebration, we had some time to kill before we were going to meet with some friends, so in the spirit of doing something as a family, we went to see the new Planes movie together.  It was really cute and the boys definitely have fun at the theater.

Such a fun day so far and it was about to get much more enjoyable.  Our friends were driving through Show Low going to Utah and we invited them to come through to check out Show Low.  We wanted to show them around since they had never been there before.

After we drove around and showed Mary the town.  We stopped at Show Low Lake to let the kids play and take a break from the car.  We love having other friends to play with.

We got back and had a goodbye picture.  We loved having our friends stay for a few hours
