#MantiPageant

We are finally just relaxing at my dad's house, getting ready for bed. We got up early this morning, dropped Sport and Crafty off in Taylorsville for their parade, and then we made our way through the crazy traffic to Drama Queen's house.


We spent the next 3 hours working on touch-up painting, caulking, and miscellaneous small tasks. The upstairs is nearly habitable, which is good because Teach and Twiz will be moving their little family in there next week.

After we picked up the kids from the parade, we finished up and then ran home. It was a mad dash to get out the door in time to pick up Prima Donna from Trefoil before heading to Manti to watch the Mormon Miracle Pageant.

It was awesome, as usual, but my favorite part was running into a favorite childhood friend and visiting for a few minutes. She and her family were staying in Ephraim just so they could participate as members of the cast. I hadn't seen her in about 30 years...

Grandpa was swarmed with people who knew him as a teacher and he was loving it. It was a busy, but definitely good day.

Wow, you are a master at doing more than one thing in a day. Just going to the Manti Pageant would have done me in. I loved your moment at the Pageant. Finding a friend that you haven't seen for 30 years; awesome. Happy your Dad connected with his past too.
We haven't seen that pageant in years; but maybe next year. It did sound like an sweet family day!
Blessings and hugs~
