Labor Day Weekend Fun

I started off the Labor Day weekend with the tradition of going to the big parade in Blackfoot. Its something my family has always done since my Mom lives right in the middle of all the festivities. The picture down below is of my dad patrolling his lawn!
We backed my Dad's truck up to the street and watched all the floats go by with my little cousins. They just couldn't get enough candy. At one point, the Fort Hall Casino float came by and were shooting t-shirts out into the crowd. Jake wanted one SO bad! To his surprise, one came his direction. He unfolded the shirt only to find that it was something advertising their senior citizen activities... what a buzz kill.


It was a fun time, though! We had a barbecue afterward and ate lots of fresh food from the garden and hamburgers too.

Saturday night was my beautiful cousin, Gabrielle's quinceanera party. She look SO gorgeous! We had a really good time with family and friends. She even got her first car!
On Sunday, I continued to hang out with some family. Then, when Justin got off of work, we went out to catch a movie. We saw the Expendables and Dinner for Schmuks. I liked both of them, especially the latter!
On Monday, we went to the fair, which was always fun! I ate so many things that are awful for me (corn dogs, bread with honey butter, scones). But it was SO GOOD and SO worth the splurge! I'm going again on Friday with my friend Jessi. It was a super fun long weekend!
