Best Pioneer Days ever! (except I do miss the grease pole they used to climb in Brigham City to get money on top)
So we started with the pageant at the school. It told the importance of lineage and the Book of Mormon. Everyone was an actor out of the Book of Mormon. Brett was Himni and one of the Stripling Warriors.
Then the Sanford parade.... every float was a Book of Mormon Story.
The parade is so short, it goes down the street, then turns around and comes back again!!
Maybe I am 5, but that made me so excited. Becky made the Title of Liberty float with Captain Moroni.
Friday was the Manassa parade (the first time). It went up and down the street twice, too.
But it was great! No real advertising, no tiny girls flaunting themselves, no school stuff, just cute hometown, family floats. Each year there is a FLOAT CONTEST. Which do you think won?
Camping Float
Snowman Float
Ice Princess Float (really bad angle, but one of my favorites)
Grease Lightning Float
The Mermaid/Ursula Float
The Earthlings Beware/Martian Float
And there were many Many, more! I love the creativity and fun everyone had. It was the best parade ever! So you see the parade Friday (twice, up then back down the road), then again on Saturday with big ribbons on the winning floats, Grand Prize, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. (Again, you see it twice... so the same parade four times in two days.) Made me happy like a preschooler again ;)

Um, that parade is GIGANTIC compared to the Hatch Town parade. They don't even have "floats"..not one truck pulling anything.
