Pioneer Day 2012

Here in Pocatello we celebrate Pioneer Day on the Saturday before July 24th! It started out with a parade in the morning, and then that afternoon they have food, games, music, a petting zoo, a water slide, mutton-bustin, horse races, and lots of fun at the Bannock County Fairgrounds!
Anxiously waiting for the parade to start!

Watching the parade!

Kinzie loved the big horses:)

Watching the parade!
 We went to the parade with my mom and some of our friends and their kids! Kinzie got lots of candy that her daddy is happy to help her eat (he loves parade candy, me....not so much). We ate lunch at Taco Bell, gave Kinzie a nap, then headed to the Fairgrounds for some food, fun, and entertainment! 
That evening, we headed to Arbon to play games with my family and to see the newest member of their family!!!!
And here he is...cute little Mo!

Kinzie loves him:)

Their cat also had 5 kittens recently, and they all look identical and cute:) Here's two of them!!  And Kinzie of course loves them as well, probably even more than the puppy, seeing how they'll sit still longer for her to pet them!

I sure am grateful for the Pioneers and all of their hard work and sacrifice. They have set many examples and left many impressions for today's generation to follow! I am so thankful for them and that we have a day set aside each year to remember and honor them and their legacy!
