Oh The Memories!

We are home now from our summer adventures~busy in our world of school, piano, church, seminary, etc. We all miss Nauvoo, family, friends, the activities of the Nauvoo pageant. It was a wonderful opportunity for our family and something we will treasure for the rest of our lives. We hope to be able to return next summer!








Hair today~gone tomorrow!
Doug couldn't wait to get his hair cut and face shaved. Let's see~we finished with pageant clean-up at 2:30 in the morning, and Doug was shaved and cut by 10:00 AM.



Although we were super busy as pioneers, we did steal a few moments to enjoy the modern parts of life. Four-wheeling is a favorite at grandpa's house.


Grandpa Fligge's horse, I mean dog, Fador! A favorite site at the pre-show field.


Walking a few weeks "in their shoes" gave us a new appreciation for the pioneers and their lifestyle.


The Davis' are pulling their load~Aunt Darlien and the cousins. :)


Grandpa, Steph, and Fador.


During the second week of the pageant, Stephanie was invited to play the part as daughter of Hyrum Smith. She got to be center stage for several scenes, including the final scene. She told me that she was not nervous, but "hyper" inside because she was so excited.
