Days of '47 Parade by Daniel

(Note by Mom: We took the family to the annual Days '47 Parade for Pioneer Day. It was the first time we have taken the kids, since Steve hasn't usually had the day off. What fun!)

The parade was really cool. We saw lots of floats. In one of the cars we saw President Monson. There were a lot of marching bands and it was REALLY hot. My favorite float was of seagulls eating crickets. We saw all the motorcycles of all the Sheriffs of Utah. They preformed a lot of tricks (formations). We saw the Mayor and lots of really, really old cars. My favorite marching band was the Post Office Band. My favorite part of the Parade was seeing President Monson up close.




If you can't tell from the picture, the seagulls are BBQing the crickets for a picnic. Very funny!

Can you imagine Grandpa being in the parade last year. Our ward spent hours and hours and days and days and weeks and weeks building the float. We did not win a prize,but that is alright because many people who did not even know our ward said we had one of the best floats. Love Grandma N
