Petersen Reunion 2009 Day 2: 4th of July

Our second full day of the Petersen Reunion happened to be the 4th of July! We got up early this morning and headed down to Provo! Brian ran into Albertson's and got donuts and milk and then we headed over to Bruce and Beth's. Brian and Bruce walked over and staked out a spot for us to watch the parade. The boys and I stayed with Beth and Rachel until the parade was about to start. Brayden enjoyed the donuts!!

During the parade we got rained on a bit and so I didn't take any pictures!! Bruce, Beth, and Rachel headed back to their apartment but we stuck it out and enjoyed almost the whole parade until Brayden was ready to go!
After the parade we met up with the rest of the family and all got lunch down on Center Street from various vendors and our little family finished our time there by having snow cones! We headed back to our place for naps again and waited for everyone to come over for dinner. After our BBQ, we all headed up to Salt Lake and went to see the Salt Lake Bees play the Tacoma Rainers. We didn't know who to root for and in the end, just wanted the game to be finished! It went 12 innings and Tacoma ended up winning 7-5! We all enjoyed the fireworks and both the boys stayed awake until the drive home!
Easton and I on his first 4th of July! (I never got a picture of the boys together in their 4th of July shirts!)
Easton really enjoyed the game and all the excitement around him provided all the entertainment he needed!
Brayden loved having so many people around to help keep him entertained, especially Aunt Stephanie and Aunt Carrie!
Eventually all the excitement got to Easton and he crashed on Grandma's lap!
Brayden and I
I had found these glow stick swords at the Dollar Store and took those and some other glow sticks for Brayden to have at the game! He loved them!
