Manti Pagent!

The end of June we had the opportunity to go to see the Manti Miracle Pageant with some friends. It was great and a lot of fun to see the pageant as well as the hang out with our great friends. It was amazing to me to see how busy Manti is during the pageant season and how many people come to see the pageant.

They had about 14,000 chairs set up for all those that came to see the pageant.

We went with Paula and Dennis Barreto and while we were there, we ran into another couple from our ward, David and Betina Mann.

This is Paula, we had to wait for a bit before we could get into the seating area. So we had fun taking some pictures.
Paula wanted to take this picture with a random little girl in the picture. She kinda reminded me of when I was younger.
Denise and Sean

Once we got into the seating area, we actually got front row seats! We couldn't believe it!

Just some random pictures that we took while waiting for the show to start...

 













All in all it was a really fun night! Although it was a little cold and there were a lot of mosquitoes, it was fun to get to know Paula and Denise better and just have a fun time. I had only seen the pageant once before and that was when I was five years old. The few memories I have about the pageant were fond and its nice to piece all those together and know what it was I saw. I'm grateful for all the many wonderful people that took so much of their time to put on such a wonderful show that really invokes the spirit and helps us all understand more fully the majesty, the spirit and the lives of those of the gospel and Book of Mormon.
