The Pioneer Day Parade in Snowflake, AZ!

MaryKate is ready for the parade! She is wearing a bonnet and skirt her mom wore when she was in a Pioneer Day parade with the Primary in Strawberry as a little girl. Here, MaryKate poses next to pictures of her Mom Heidi (3rd down), Aunt Amy, Uncle Karl, and half of Uncle Kris. She looks so much like her mom! How time flies.
MaryKate looked so pioneer-ish that the first lady on this float complimented her! "You should be on a float, too!" she said.
This parade was about women pioneers, and their contributions to the church and town.
I liked this float a lot---about the mothers of the 2,000 stripling warriors in the Book of Mormon. I am thankful for the faith of all the mothers, me included, that have helped the children of the world.
What a nice parade! Especially with family to enjoy it with!
