Memorial Day Weekend Day 1 Part 1 &2

I love going to the cemetery!!! A lot of people find that strange but there is an amazing spirit to the cemetery and I love going and visiting my ancestors there. Because of this we try and visit the American Fork Cemetery where my mom's family is buried on Memorial day. Alex seems to have this love as well so it is fun to see his enthusiasm as we go and decorate graves. He loved hearing the story of one his may great grandpas who was the first railroad conductor in the world.


After the cemetery we had to go to do our family tradition. When my mom was little she use to have a farm in American Fork. After they worked on the farm her dad would take her to get ice cream from Parker's Drive In. This tradition has carried on and this year my mom took all of us for ice cream. This is an icon in American Fork and although the world is being built towards it it still looks the same as it did 50 years ago when my mom started going there.
