Pony Express Days!!!

Today was the Pony Express Parade and we had the best seat in the house.  Yesterday I saw people out there putting down blankets and reserving a spot for this mornings parade.  All we had to do was go outside on our deck off of the master bedroom and sit down!  It started at 10:00 and went until 12:00 and we got to sit and relax in the rocking chairs and enjoy all of it.  It was great to see all of the things offered in and around our city. 

The Firing Squad (there was even a cannon)
Sara loved the horses

Miss Eagle Mountain

Yes we even got music!!!
This was one of 10 groups that played in the parade!!!

And look at how close we were to the action.  We didn't even have to fight for a spot!  When we got hot we went inside for a little (we got hot, it was 83*).  We really enjoyed it!  Every so often I am amazed by this place, and reminded how blessed we are!!! Now tonight we are going to go to the carnival that is only about 1/4 a mile away and with in walking distance.  I will let you know how it goes!!!
