Manti Pageant and another Temple trek

I have lived in Utah my entire life, I have always been LDS, and I have NEVER been to the Manti Pageant. We went last weekend and it was so fun! The temple is beautiful, I think it is my favorite. It is so beautiful standing there all alone on the mountainside. Majestic.

We left last Thursday. When we got there we went and put our blankets out and then walked the town. We found the Turkey dinner at the Stake House, and some candy at this cute little candy store on Main.

The pageant started at 9:30. My kids loved it! I thought they would sleep through the whole thing, but they didn't. They LOVED the Lamanite warriors. When the play ended at 11:30 we packed up and headed to our hotel.

The next morning we had a great breakfast and then we headed to the Temple to actually touch the temple. It was gated off the night before because of the pageant.

We are really enjoying this challenge and we are now more than half way through with seeing all of them! What a great focus for our family this year as we prepare for our first baptism...

This is us right when we placed our blankets. The temple is amazing!

Nice looking warriors

We made a bed for Jack. He was excited about it.
This is the next morning at the entrance of the temple.
