Austin and I had a fun filled weekend. Saturday morning we went to a BBQ at Leslie's house (she's one of Austin's good friends from high school). I got to meet a couple of people Austin went to high school with and get a glimpse of his teenage years.
Afterwards, we went swimming for free at the local pool. Every Saturday is free swimming. Can't beat that with the 100 degree weather we're having.
That night we walked down 25th Street and found a cool ceramics shop we want to patronize someday. You pick out the ceramic you want, design it, paint it, and they glaze it for you. It's pretty awesome.
On our way back to our car, we took a break from the heat and sat down in the shade. We were approached by a couple who had 2 tickets they wanted to give away to the Osmond 2nd Generation concert that night in the amphitheater. We gladly accepted. It surprised me how good these unknown artists to us were! They even had their dad, Allen Osmond, get on stage and sing barbershop songs with them. We really enjoyed ourselves.
On Sunday, Ogden city kicked off its 24th of July Pioneer Days by presenting the Pops Symphony coupled with fireworks at the WSU campus. We listened to the Pops Symphony on the car radio while we watched the fireworks display. We parked in the grocery store parking lot and had the best view of the show. The best part was we didn't get rained on and we didn't get stuck in the traffic aftermath since we were already in our car.
We're excited to celebrate the Ogden Pioneer Days and attend more events this coming week.
