Lucy, the pioneer, and our weekend

A first Pioneer Day for Lucy, and it was a lot of fun.

It started with the Bountiful parade and dinner with the Butler fam! 

That parade gets bigger every year, but the candy seems to be less and less every year. The kids all had a great time, and Lucy loved the marching bands, to which she would dance.

 So stinkin cute!  

On the morning of the 24th, we went to a Chuck Wagon breakfast. If anyone out there 

knows why they are called chuck wagon, do enlighten us!! 

For the evening, we headed to the Becks extended family BBQ. What a generous family! 

They, ALL the Becks, are so welcoming, friendly and a great family. 

We had a few tug-a-wars, of which the girls won, most the time. It was a lot of fun. 

And Lucy was able to meet and play with the other Lucy, the cutest bug in the world. 

Lucy is about 5 months older then our Lucy, and the cutest thing! 

Our Lucy was in hog heaven! 

And finally, we finished off the weekend with a trip to the zoo!! 

Lucy does love the zoo! Above, she is admiring the penguins, but also really likes the 

peccaries and monkeys. 

We did miss my parents horribly, as holidays seem to always remind me of family. 

But alas, I could not have asked for a more memorable holiday.
