Labor Day in Parowan Utah

Matt's grandparents on his dad's side live in Parowan Utah. They are such a great set of people. Grandpa Thales Brown was asked to be the Grand Marshal for the Iron County Parade this year. We were so proud of them. We made the trip down to see their big moment.
We were not there at the parade yet to see their car go by (we were late and they were the first in the parade). We arrived just moments after the parade started and walked a few blocks trying to catch a glimpse at their car but they were well ahead. 

Preslee loves Parades. She dances to whatever music is playing on the floats that are going by. She claps for them. She waves to them. She really gets involved. She still doesn't care much for the candy but she still picked it up and gave it to dad. She was more into what was going on on the floats.
Matt was so good to stay with her and watch her close.

I really didn't watch the parade much, I just watched Preslee watch the parade. That was so much more entertaining for me.

These are some of Matt's cousin's (on the Brown side) kids. Of course.....as usual.... Preslee has no problem fitting in and making friends.They were all so nice to her and really rallied around her.

Watching the Parade with Aunt Kris.

We went to Grandma and Grandpa Brown's house and had a little luncheon. Jami, Jim, Matt, Preslee, and I picked some peaches off of their tree so Jami and I could make jam. They have so many peach trees and they were so delicious. I would love to have fruit trees someday....... someday. 
Preslee loved Playing in this little car. I remember having one of these when I was little and my dad would tie it to his riding lawn mower and pull us around. I need to get Preslee one of these but then the question arises... Where would we put it? We will. We will figure something out. I don't want her to miss out on anything and having a pair of these kinds of wheels are wonderful memories waiting to be had.

Matt bonding with his grandma Brown. She is really frail but she is as sharp as a tack. 



This has NEVER happened. It didn't even happen that often as an infant. We really wore her out that weekend and we haven't full recovered from it yet either.
