Steel Days

Every summer American Fork has their city celebration called Steel Days. It gets its name from the Geneva Steel plant where most residents of American Fork worked back in the early days. It is tradition in our family to go to the breakfast provided by the American Fork Marching Band and then off to the parade. It was a warm morning, but we had a great spot in the shade!

Eliza, Sarah (Robert's girlfriend), and Shannon waiting for the parade to start.

Mallory was excited about the candy that was thrown by those in the parade.



Cosmo was Christian's favorite!


Cinderella was mine!


Shannon got to throw a pin to the clown who then juggled them.
I don't know how he can do all that on stilts!


There is a new restaurant coming to Utah Valley called Pirate Island Pizza. Austin and I saw one in St. George when we were there last month and Austin had a good time making fun of it with a very authentic pirate voice. Well, they had a float in the parade with a Jack Sparrow impersonator who was hilarious! He made for great entertainment during a lull in the parade.

Hi Marianne!

You are so cute with your baby belly pics AND you cut your hair! I love it! :) I can't wait to see pictures of your baby! I promise I have not forgotten about your Marykay stuff. It will happen, sometime! :) Take Care!

What Austin? Please tell me you didn't really make fun of Pirate Island Pizza. That stuff is insane! Honestly, don't knock it 'till you've tried it! Unless of course, you live by a different credo, which is, "Don't try it 'till you've knocked it!" Which, if that's the case, go ahead and try it. They have "The Kraken". It's not to be taken lightly.
