Pageant!

I had a great time with the kids, taking their pictures with the cast members before the pageant started.

The search was on for the "three Lehi's". We saw one Lehi and took his picture. Amazingly enough, he was from Eagle Mountain!!!! What a small world! He told us there were actually three Lehi's in the production, and Ashley insisted we find all three. The second one was no problem, but it took awhile for her and Mady to find the third.
We also got pictures with "Praying Joseph", the "Prophet Joseph", Emma Smith (not a surprise for those who know me well!), and various apostles, dancers, etc.

The Pageant was Fantastic!!! Even Jake, who was not at all excited about it, decided we need to do it as a family. It's something we are definitely considering for 2012 if we are still out here and things work out. We talked to some youth who have been doing it for years with their families, and they said it is better than EFY, temple trips, camp, youth conferences, all put together. And that it draws their family closer together than anything else could. Sounds good to me!
