Herriman Days Parade!

We always look forward to Herriman Days.  This year it was a lot earlier than normal AND we've had cooler weather than normal, so the HEAT wasn't an issue.  It was perfect parade-day weather!

 The girls and I had a good spot!



 Kaeli and Violet

Sara and Rylie 

The Scouts started out the parade,
and we cheered and hollered for Sammy!

 There's our boy!

First Grade Opera!

Rylie's class worked really hard this year getting ready for their opera.  They studied Ancient Egypt this year so that's what it was all about.  The kids wrote the lyrics to the songs (someone else put them to music) and made the props.  And of course, the parents came up with the costumes.  It turned out so GOOD!  I was impressed.

 Rylie played two parts; an Egyptian Slave and a Mummy.  Since she wasn't going to have enough time to change she wore her mummy costume UNDER her slave costume. 


Here are some snap shots of her big night:


Congrats to Rylie!
She did a fabulous job!!!
