Oh how I love this time of year--the wonderful "tween" season of Summer and Fall. It's not blazing hot but not yet cold enough for a coat, maybe a jacket during the evening but the absolute perfect temperature in my mind. The "tween" season officially begins at Peach Days. I love it all--the parade, the over-priced rides, the dutch-oven cooking, and especially the booths.
We started our Peach Day festivities on Friday night. My mom treated us and the Jacoways to dutch-oven dinner of ribs, chicken, potatoes, and cobbler. So yummy. Allie gobbled up the potatoes and Kaylee ate her roll and potatoes but was too excited to eat much else.

We heard the best time to go on all of the kid rides was during the kiddie parade. And it was. No lines and because of no lines they let them ride the rides for a really long time. Definitely the most bang for our buck going then.

| Liv's first carnival ride. She loved this one with Kaylee. |
 |
| Carousel time! |
 |
| Excited for Puff. |

They had a blast but their faces sure didn't look like it. The ride was a little intense...and jerky. |

| She loved this one. |
Kaylee was excited when she saw her good buddy Tate. It has become a Peach Day's tradition for Kaylee and Tate to ride one ride together. First year the carousel, second year t
he disastrous attempt at the train, but the third year was a success at the motorcycle/car ride.
We love this tradition and its something I know Kaylee looks forward to. I know I do because that means I get to see my best friend Kara. It's always fun catching up with her.
Saturday morning we continued with the Peach Days traditions and went to the parade with the Fullers. We had great seats thanks to my sisters-in-law for camping out on the prime real estate Thursday afternoon.

| Poor Allie tried to hold on but couldn't last the entire parade. |
After the parade we made the rounds at the booths, bought an awesome picture of the Bountiful temple that I can't wait to hang up, then finished the day with the BYU game.

Kaylee was a blast this year. She loved the parade, wasn't afraid of the loud sirens from the different cars and trucks, and she LOVED the rides. Allie enjoyed herself as well. She was smiles all day.

Peach Days Rocks My Socks. The End.
PS Totally adorable pics of the kids as usual :)
I have to admit that the "disastrous attempt at the train" is my favorite story. :) and I will admit to retelling it to family and friends because it makes me laugh. (hope that's okay) Looks like this year was much more fun for everyone...
