Come one and all Tremonters to the Box Elder County Fair!

It was fun to have a child at the Box Elder County parade this year! Drake loved watching all the floats, cars, dancers, tractors, and horses go by! He especially loved the music from the band! The sirens were pretty loud though! It was HOT, HOT, HOT so Grandpa Bob put him in the ice cooler every now and then to cool him down. I don’t like Drake to have sugar very often, but I think he had 3 popsicles just because I was trying to cool him down! Rob was lucky enough to be in a golf cart the whole time supervising the parade.
Like everyone else from Tremonton, we love going to the Box Elder County FAIR and RODEO! Robert worked at a booth for Farm Bureau Insurance so we spent a lot of time there this year. The favorites were: the food, walking around looking at the booths & shops, the animal barn, hamburgers, and family time.
Grandma & Grandpa Hunsaker joined us for the Animal Barn

This balloon entertained Drake for hours. Thank you to whoever had the booth with the balloons! Hannah on the bungee-trampoline

The rodeo was great this year! My uncle Brent Rose was in charge of it and he did an amazing job! Our major bummer though, was that Drake was fussy and it started raining so we had to leave the rodeo early and never got to watch the barrel-racing (my fav) or the bulls (Rob’s fav). Next year!

One of the big highlights of the rodeo was my mom singing the National Anthem. Beautiful!
(the quality of this recording makes it sound like she was flat at time, but she was spot on! Just a bad recording)
