Pioneer Day and Lola's B-day Party

In Utah, we have a Pioneer Day celebration on the 24th of July. I've never really celebrated it before (mostly because I only lived in Utah as an undergrad), but we had a great time going to the parade and having a bbq with friends and family. Here are some of the highlights:


water balloon toss with Liz and Caroline (me and Siri).


Felicity doing a lot of wandering around (and generally having a great time) at the bbq


My two angels! (Flissa has her bottle because she was almost ready for bed)



Siri's obsession with Bob and Judy's Sugar Plum Princess and fairy dolls (yes, she took these pictures)


Watching the fireworks


Making "snakes" (Siri's favorite part!)

And because I have been a slacker (and didn't post these ON Pioneer Day), I also have photos of Lola's Birthday Party from last night. It was at Nate and Michelle's house and was SO fun! The first part was outside...there was a huge wind storm that can in and blew away napkins, plates, chips...I even chased after a sack and got made fun of (I couldn't really tell if I was going to really get it or not, so I kept stopping then chasing...you can imagine how ridiculous I looked).

I can't believe Lola is 2! Happy Birthday Lola!

The birthday girl!

I feel like this is the face I got from her every time I snapped a picture!

Your girls are so cute! I'd forgotten that it was pioneer day last week. I guess it's easy to forget when you live in an area that doesn't celebrate it. I don't think our ward even did anything... But it looked like you guys had a lot of fun! I love the picture of Siri watching the fireworks. :-)
