Following the afternoon at Grandma and Papa's house, we headed over to the Sandy City parade with the Bos family. Annabelle and Stockton had a great time and were super good! Annabelle was wiped out from her long afternoon in the sun, hence all the half-smiles in the pictures :) But she was a little trooper, as was Stockton. I wasn't quite sure if we'd make it all the way to fireworks without having to call it quits and head home, but they both did great and were excited to be there with their cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents. Stocky is Papa's little shadow, and they both love it! The fireworks were fun too: Annabelle didn't even cover her ears (a HUGE triumph), and Stockton only cried a few times but calmed down quickly. I had an escape plan just in case, and I was so surprised I didn't have to use it! :)
It was a long day, but full of fun for the kids! We arrived back home close to midnight, one of the latest nights we've ever had. Thankfully we made it into the house tantrum-free and we were one day closer to seeing Josh!
Annabelle chased down the people who had this flyer! She thought it was a ticket to the Pioneer Pageant (her cousin, Paige, is performing in the pageant) :) |
Stockton loved getting another fire hat! |
