24th of July aka Pioneer Day

Pioneer Day is a Utah thing, but I think I like it more than the 4th of July (gasp)! I have so many fond memories of the 24th of July- pie eating contests, sleeping out on Main Street for the Day's of 47 Parade, fireworks, backpacking with Rob, and big mountain men breakfasts with the family are just a few. For the last couple years we've nixed the Day's of 47 Parade and have started a new tradition of going to our local (small town feel) parade on the 23rd and watching the firework show down the street from our house. It's so fun! Here are a couple pictures of the parade.
