After the parade we went to the cheesecake factory for lunch around 1130 a.m.  We had a wonderful lunch and we all splurged and had cheese cake.  Of course,  the one I got was cream cheese carrot cake.  Believe it or not it was 1500 calories.  I have only been eating around 1200-1300 calories a day since march.  So you can imagine I felt SUPER GUILTY. But it was delicious.  After, we came back to our home so mom Cook could take a nap so we could go to Heber at 6 p.m.  We bought tickets to "fiddlers and fireworks"  We had a barbeque, listened to pioneer fiddling and rode the Heber train to deer lake and watched fireworks across the lake.  The reflection was awesome.  It was a very fun evening.  We got home late midnight.  Mom Cook was a trooper and kept up very nicely.  It is amazing she is 87 years old and healthy and able to do as well as she does.  She does tire easily and her feet swell if she walks too much.
