Santaquin Orchard Days Parade 2009


This pretty well sums it up. Ethan looking like a 1980's beastie boy, Brianna looking confident these underlings will perform adquitely in the candy collection task, Olivia & Kylee dancing to the sound of sirens, Tate trying to eat through a candy wrapper, Tammy checking out how the plague is treating the soft skin tissue of her under arm, and the Pickering offering moral support.

Sarah hated the loud sirens and bells the firefighters, police, and ambulances were blairing. It was pretty darn loud.


Memre and my dad hung out for much of the parade. That day she wanted to play the eye-contact-smile game but we only played for a little bit. There wer some people about 20 feet from the road and I think they were mad that other people had the audicity to set up their chairs in front of them.

Some of the candy hit the police car next to us and two big pieces of paint came off the hood.

A girl dressed like a prostitute crawled under the same police car to retrieve a frisby that rolled under it. The scene was a little strange but hey, free frisbee.

Nate and I also got some kicks out of seeing some bold Santaquin fashion. One kid had a thick wool beanie on with dark puffs of hair coming out from underneith the rim. Each puff of hair looked as if it had been sewn to the hat like some kind of spoof hat. It didn't help that he had to walk like a penguin to keep his pants from falling to the ground. If you're not smart be pretty, that's my motto.
