1. Provo Parade
2. Lunch and swimming at our place
3. BBQ and fireworks at Jason and Jen's
Getting to the parade was pretty eventful this year . We woke up to a flat tire on the Altima. So we headed to the gas station to fill it up. As soon as we got it full, we could hear the hissing sound from the air seeping out the 2 holes. We decided we should put on our spare there at the gas station, knowing the tire wouldn't last much longer. Once we emptied out the trunk (which was full of all our parade crap) we found out that the crank arm to our jack was missing. We put everything back into the trunk and headed back home to get the jack from Nick's car. With some help from a couple of friends we got the doughnut on and were on our way, only an hour behind schedule :) About 5 minutes after being on the freeway, Sydney got car sick and puked all over herself. (Luckily I had the impression earlier to pack an extra pair of clothes for her.) I had to get in the back seat and clean it all up. It was all I could do to keep MY breakfast down. By then we were about 2 hours behind schedule and really should have headed home after all that, but I'm glad we didn't. We made it to the parade with minutes to spare and it was a lot of fun. The airplane fly-by's and seeing Glenn Beck made sticking it out worth it. Bye the way... Thanks John and Clark for the tire help!
The rest of our day off was less eventful, meaning less stresses and a lot of fun. We loved spending the day with Nick's family. Thanks Grandma Janet for lunch and thanks Jason and Jen for the wonderful BBQ and fireworks. We had a wonderful time.

It'd definitely no Delta, but you know not everyone can be so lucky as to be invited to the great town of Hicks!!! Oh wait!!! You were! Looks like you had fun.
Oh man! When we saw you guys walking to the Parade you looked fine! You must have recovered easily enough. Sorry about all the problems. I hate starting a morning out bad.
