Pioneer Day

So the 24th of July is known as Pioneer Day here in good ol' Utah. It's a day we celebrate the arrival of the pioneers to the Salt Lake Valley, it's also an excuse for another summer holiday(info for the very few of you who don't actually live here). In the morning we made a big breakfast and watched the parade on TV. I figure we will actually go to one when our kids are old enough to care...lol. In the afternoon we went to our friends house for a BBQ and fireworks. Malcolm had a blast in kiddie pool but was a little nervous of the fireworks. By the end of the "show" he was alright with them though.

Since the 24th was a Thursday Wyatt took Friday off of work too so we could have a nice long weekend. We too the opportunity to go up to East Canyon to play on the Jet Ski's...whoot so much fun!


Malcolm loves to stand up in the pool and then splash down onto his bottom



Oooo pretty sparkler



Jim and his daughter Jackie enjoying the sparklers too



Taking a ride on our friends scooter...beep beep!



Malcolm felt that he needed to ride a car at the same time as our "show".


Malcolm refused to sit on the Jet Ski...I think he liked to see where we were going



Malcolm had fun but we kept it pretty slow because he was a little nervous



Wyatt going for a ride on the tube...he only tumbled a few times
