My kids and Sasha marched in the Grande Parade in downtown Provo. I made Russian costumes for the girls and some friends also and they represented Russians who have found freedom in America. Our float..made by members of our Stake won and award for best entry by and non-profit organization. It was a mountain with an eagle on top. I ran two miles at home and then ran with the stroller....in the heat back and forth from the parade. We had a perfect day yesterday. It was fun with lots of fun family memories that I hope will stay with my kids their whole lives. Alot of my days I think about the memories that my kids will have of that day. Of course there are days where mom is mad or just not really all there but usually I try and make the day something I want my kids to remember. I'm probably an expert at that as much as Sasha is at running.....he doesn't really handle the memory department but works hard to teach our kids consistency and discipline. |
