Every year I go to the PRIDE Festival at the City and County Building in Salt Lake. This year I decided to take my kids (with tons of help from my bff Amanda) so that they could have the experience. Had it not been for the rain, it would have been a joyous event. We had so much fun watching the parade, Jo had her eyes wide open the entire time to all the new sights and sounds. The highlight of the day for me was the when Kippie decided that he wanted to be held by the man standing next to me (read: 50+ year old Latino man with big goatee, shaved head, great veneers, and his 20 year old boyfriend).
