Riding the Ox cart.  The man working with the Oxen was so impressed with the pageant that he said he was going to pay for all his grandkids to come to the pageant next year.

Saying goodbye to our district leader Malia on closing night.

In front of the temple.

Looking at the temple.

Kaitlin took this great picture of Jared.

On the temple steps.

Ruth in the Seventies Hall waiting for a vignette.

Chuck practices his dance moves backstage.

A snowcone was a popular treat.

The kids at the temple

Because of time we always ended up eating dinner after getting dressed in our costumes.  I also did dishes more than once at midnight in bloomers, bun and a t-shirt.

Jared in the stickball scene. Jared is in the orange/brown vest on the left.

Kaitlin in the street throwing scene. The goal was to throw the fabric as high as they could. On the last night Kaitlin said that they really caught some good air.

Our family on stage in the picnic scene and Cody the stage crew guy.

More dancing! Chuck and I are just left of center.

Chuck is in a shirt and vest, I'm in a light tan dress with brown dots. We are up and left of center.

Putting up the temple. I'm on the third row, third from the right. Chuck is on the pull line on the right and the kids are sitting there on the right. Kaitlin's dress is orangish and all fanned out and Jared is sitting by her. Ruth is in blue.

Raising the temple at the end of the show.

 

Our final pose. You can't see us but we are in the back on the right.

I have a couple hundred pictures from the trip. I've just tried to pick out the good ones and show a mix of pictures that captured our experiences. I posted our individual pics in our pioneer cloths on Facebook. Is there anything else you are interested in knowing or seeing???
