OVERNIGHTER

For the last couple of years Terry and I have wanted to take the girls to the Mormom Miracle Pageant in Manti but it never worked out...well this year Jadyn had youth conference that ended at Cove Fort on the first day the pageant started so we picked her up from there and headed up to Manti. We got there and ate some yummy subways and then headed to the temple to get a good blanket spot so we didn't have to sit on the hard chairs. Then we walked around looked at the booths and then relaxed, people watched, and had pictures with the cast memebers walking around.
Terry or the girls have never been to the pageant so I was excited to see their reaction. The girls all enjoyed it except Jadyn fell asleep from being so tired from youth conference. The rest of the girls stayed bundled up against the chilly summer's night air. Terry's reaction was mixed he expected it to be a little more like a Tuachan production, but he did like it. The next morning we walked around the temple and saw all the behind the scenes equipment and how big and beautiful the temple is. We ate breakfast at a little park in Manti, stopped at Fremont Indian Park, and then headed home.

We toured Cove Fort (Terry, Jorrin, and Jantzyn had never been there) while Jadyn finished up her youth conference. We got there right as the youth were having lunch so were able to join them and eat Dutch Oven Potatoes and Ribs.

Our awesome blanket spot.
