This morning we woke up really early and had the opportunity to help clean the church building we attend. I really love doing this especially with the kids becuase we can teach them a lot. Not only do they help out with vacuuming or picking up trash, they see how important it is to make sure the building is clean before church the next day. The cleaning didn't take very long, but right after that we went home and got some chairs and waited for the springville parade. I love this parade, it is big and the best part about it is that it is really close to the house, so we don't have to worry about traffic afterwards. We saw a lot of fun floats and the kids got a lot of candy which made them really happy. After the fun parade, we decided to take a drive up a canyon that is in mapleton. It was a great drive, and on the way back down, we saw a deer. It was great. The kids were excited and we were able to stop on the road for a while. The deer just stood there and then ran up the hill but was still visible to us. It was so beautiful. I love how we can go up canyons and see different things and deer. They must be used to it, becuase this one didn't run away, it stood around looking at us. We finally got down the canyon and took the kids to the springville carnival. We had taken Hans last year so he was excited becuase he remembered the rides. I was excited becuase they had carnival food. Hans wend on a roller coaster and then sent time on rides with liesl. It was fun to watch them have fun. We ended the night sitting by springville highschool around 10pm to watch the fireworks display. We definatly had a fun filled day and now am ready for bed.
