Here in Utah, every July 24th we Celebrate the Days of 47. This is when Brigham Young Entered the UTAH valley and said, "This IS the Place." or as some people might say, "This is the place?" and Utah was born. So this gives us an excuse to be off of work (for most of us) and to Eat, watch the parade on KSL and light off Fireworks.
Here are the Watkins Girls in their Days of 47 Red White and Blue Colors.
They are pretty happy.
We were so happy that most of my family came over for a yummy BBQ and Laughs.
Here is Ross and Jenny and Steve (shoulder) telling funny stories.
Here are pictures of some of the girls eating pop sickles on the swing. (photo by Jenny)
Lilly, Abby, Gracie, Maggie & Olivia
After we ate and when it got dark, we got out the blankets and sat back to Watch Blake and Jeff and Steve Light off the fireworks. We have fun.
ooooooooo!!!
AHHHHHHHH!!
The younger girls didn't like the noisy ones very well. So RuthAnn was the mommy to comfort them. Abby held her ears and RA held Lilly's .
We really had a lot of fun with everyone. We missed Lance and Kristi (just got back from a long road trip and TIRED) Tam and the kids and Joey as well. Hope everyone had a great 24th of July. Happy Birthday Tam.

Happy Pioneer Days Watkins! Looks like you celebrated in style. Here, not much going on altho a barbeque and some games at the chapel...Ken and I opted to celebrate with a nice long bike trip that day, the weather was gorgeous. Now that he is no longer Bishop we can play hookie!
Love you guys, stay cool!
