This weekend...

...We enjoyed a sleepover with my niece and nephews, as well as several Salem Days festivities with my fam.

Faith, Cole, and Clay always have fun swimming in our pool.

We played a few games with the kiddos. This is their favorite--good ol' Mouse Trap.

We made snow cones and then went outside to try to see the meteor shower. I saw something that looked like a shooting star, and Clay claimed he saw several meteors. :) The kids then picked out "A Christmas Story" to watch. Love it.

The next morning, after a free Salem Days breakfast, we went to the parade with my fam.

It's the best parade ever. It lasts less than an hour, and you get buckets full of candy and other goodies. Scott was especially excited about the otter pops.

After an afternoon of crib bedding hunting and temple-going, Scott and I headed back to Salem for the fabulous fireworks. Scott was impressed that such a small town could pull off such a great show. Sorry no pics. Just imagine your chest going "boom!" :)
