Pioneer Picnic

Our Stake had our Pioneer Day celebration on Saturday at a local park. It was a lot of fun. After dinner- BBQ pork sandwiches, salads, desserts and homemade rootbeer- there was face painting, taffy pulling, ice cream in a bag, gunny sac races, pole pull game, water balloon toss, square dancing and probably other games I didn't see. Kate took her scooter in the kiddie parade and we even attempted to decorate it. But next year we'll be taking her bike for sure. I let her choose whether she wanted to take her bike or scooter and she chose the scooter. Well, let's just say she fell down, started crying, didn't want to ride the scooter, got passed by everyone behind her and was the caboose of the parade. She actually had a melt down because she wanted to be with Alyssa (her friend) and Alyssa was on a bike and way ahead of her. She couldn't keep up on her scooter. During the parade she even passed the little water park area and wanted to stop and get in the water. Talk about attention span! :)
