Neighborhood Pioneer Day Celebration!

Last night was our Neighborhood Pioneer Day Celebration put on by our ward.  It was so much fun.  The evening started out with a Children's Parade.  There were so many kids that spent a lot of time decorating their bikes, scooters, and strollers.  Sophie and Collin enjoyed covering their stroller with blue crepe paper and then a few minutes later, ripping it off!  During the parade, Sophie was really into waving and saying "HI" to all of the spectators.  After the parade everyone met at a neighborhood park and ate, played games, got wet, and of course socialized.

Here is Sophie and Collin enjoying their plated full of chips and cookies!  You can't really tell from the picture, but there were so many people.  Our blanket became Collin's safe spot.  If he ventured far from it or me he would start crying.

There was a fish pond, slippery slide, candy cannon, and face painting.  So much fun for the kids.  Sophie and Collin loved the fish pond.  Sophie figured out how to swap prizes and went back and traded hers two or three times until she found a prize that she thought was worthy of coming home with her!

Here is Collin looking handsome in his prize from the fish pond!  It was a fun night with fun people.  The kids were worn out afterwards which makes bed time so much better:)
