This was our first year going to the Lehi Roundup Parade. Yes, Eleanor and I actually went to two parades in less then 24 hours!! This time we weren't able to get front-row seats, and Eleanor was getting so upset because she wasn't getting any candy. John was nice enough to take Eleanor up front and help her get some candy. I wasn't sure who got more excited about g
etting candy, Eleanor or John. After the parade we let Eleanor play on the playground
before heading to the rodeo. Eleanor LOVES slides and "hanging". It's so funny watching her going down the slides because most of the time she goes fling off the end of the slide.
After the parade we headed over to the Lehi Roundup. We got tickets with the Martins, Blake and Becky,Ryan and Lori, Brittany and Tiffany, Crystal and Aaron, Reed, Vern and Jensen. Of course it was way too loud to do much talking, but it was fun sitting by everyone. Thanks to Reed and his complaining, they eventually turned down the speakers enough to hear the person next to you. I'd have to say the best part of the rodeo was the dirt bike show in the middle and of course the bulls. Before Eleanor fell asleep, she loved watching all the cows and horses. At one point she was sitting with Blake and telling him all about the cows and how they were "sick". 
We didn't realize how late it was when we got home and felt bad because Andy, Drew and Timothy were over at our house. Andy was out cold on the couch and Drew and Timothy were watching a movie. I wish I had the video to capture how excited Eleanor got when she saw them. She and Drew stayed up past 1:30 watching Nacho Libre together. They eventually fell asleep and both slept on the couch. 
On Saturday Andy and John spent most of the day working our pergola. I'm sure Andy loved spending his vacation working on our project. But they got a lot of it finished and Eleanor and the boys spent most of the day playing in the sprinklers. It was a lot of fun having them up here...we only wish we lived closer!!
