Manti temple pageant!

This was the first time we have attended the manti temple pageant. I was excited for the opportunity to go. I know I've said a hundred times that wade has been gone a lot, so this will just be another time. With all the trips I thought this would be a great time to have some family time. The youth in our ward were planning on going to the pageant and we volunteered to drive and help out. So we took our kids and made a day out of it. We left early because it takes two hours to get there. Grabbed snacks and headed out. The reason I love road trips is because it's the only time wade and I talk about stuff. Lol. We always learn something new about eachother. The kids were great and didn't throw fits. They had toys and snacks so the are champion travelers. When we got there we hung out with the youth and ate a sandwich. We then decided to take some time for the family. 

We don't have much more time being a family of 4! We went and got ice cream at the local ice cream shop it was delicious. Shaylie and i took a minute to go to the craft fair and Briggs went with his dad. Shaylie and I had some bonding time. We girls have to stick together. We watched the show which was great.

The kids loved it. Briggs fell asleep during the last 5 minutes because it was 11:30 ish. We got home a little after 1 am. It was worth the once in a lifetime experience. 

The funny part came later. We are in the car with my mom the next day. Briggs told grandma that Joseph smith was shot at the temple (he saw the scene at the manti temple pageant and thought it was real I guess) is not knowing that he thought it was real kept listening. Then he said "grandma where were you?" 

Grandma " that was a long time ago"

Briggs " no it was at the temple!"

Grandma "um ok"

Briggs " were you watching soccer?"

The whole car "hahahaha"

It was a good time
