Started out our day at 4:30 am to go get seats for the parade (so that only makes me 1/2 crazy cuz we didn't SLEEP OVER) haha. We got perfect seats, thanks babe for staying and saving them for us. Taylor liked the big balloons and liked seeing all the fire trucks, although they were a bit obnoxious with the sirens. It was a great parade. Taylor got the hang of giving high 5's (my camera didn't work when Cosmo came, but I caught Tay handing out a high 5 to a sister missionary). The three LOUDEST cheers and standing O's go to.... Military, BYU and Missionaries, wouldn't you u know we are in Provo! :) Gotta love it.

Taylor was a BIT grumpy and unsure of all the chaos

After the parade we hit up a DIVEY Chinese place in Provo and it was...... Good'ish. Then we hit up Sams Club for some delicious Apple Pie and went home and napped. Later that day we did some bday shopping for family and then went to dinner at Old Spagetti Factory with Mom, Gerry, Aunt Becky and Cousin Nichole and her daughter Brooklyn (they were down for the Stadium of Fire). then it was off to home for some good games of SORRY and UNO ATTACK while we watched a few fireworks from our window and watched the Boston fireworks on TV. Pretty layed back.....it was nice!
