Bonanza day 2011

This year we had daddy with us for Bonanza day because he took the day off so that I would be able to run in the 5k race. It was a fun and relaxing day all at once. We watched what was possibly the longest Bonanza day parade in the 60 year history of Bonanza day, Kymberly got her stash of candy and we all had a great time watching the parade. Tansley and Kathryn enjoyed being on the float for the Church and felt pretty proud of the fact that the float one first place in the "church float" category(I believe they may have been the only church float).
Both Kathryn(1st place) and Tansley(1st place) had entered some art in the art contest. Tansley also had made a lego creation(1st place) and Kathryn had baked some cookies(2nd place) for the baking contest. Both girls had also entered some of their photos in the photo contest. Kathryn won 1st place($25) in the Scenic category for the under 18 age group.

We spent the afternoon at the pool cooling off. It was a hot day and the cool water was a welcome thing.

And of course we finished of the day with fireworks...well Kathryn and Tansley and I did. Daddy stayed home with James and Kymberly because they are not a fan of fireworks so they were put to bed at a sane hour. It was a super fun day and as always we look forward to doing it again next year.
