Family night FuN ! Mesa's Constitution Celebration!

Tonight we went to the Constitution celebration at Mesa Amphitheater! and can i say it was fabulous! we have never gone before but they played patriotic music, and there was a singing and dancing group preforming! It was fabulous! just going to the amphitheater is a good time for kids, with the green grass, and big hills to roll down , and we kind of let them do their own thing. most of my siblings were there tonight and a cousin and aunt. and it was pretty funny the amount of People that i knew from school there. the kids got to make a hat and then at the end they got a flag to take home. AND they had a Children's march and they played a marching song and the kids that wanted to got to participate in a parade! for like five minutes they marched. My kids loved the singing group when they did the swing music songs and the they were all standing up dancing! it was too dark to get video of them though! anyway i think this will become a yearly tradition for us! it was so fun! next year though i will remember to make the family wear Red , white and blue, just because i think that would be fun! it was an awesome family night activity! I had no idea about it until my sister called and said they wouldn't be at the park because her son was in a scout troop participating in the flag ceremony. so we changed the location so we could all go I am so glad we did! it was so fun!
