Hill Cumorah Pageant!!


This year my family and I were able to participate as part of the cast in the Hill Cumorah Pageant. Like every year it was a great experience! The Hill Cumorah Pageant is truly an amazing production. Just the fact that a hand full of directors can take ordinary people, in less then a weeks time, be able to have a professional working pageant with actors, props, stunts, special effects, lighting, and sound. They have it up and running to perform in front of thousands of audience members that come from all over the world.




Here are some pictures:

Mom and Dad

Me and Timmy

This is where we would have all of our meetings. At the Hill Cumorah Pageant there are tons of meetings. You have at least 3 devotionals a day and one after each performance. We would also eat lunch and dinner here also.





This is the cast team area. When you are not in rehearsal or in a devotional meeting you are in one of these tents with kids your same age. You do activities, service, play games, and sometimes just relax. You get to know your cast team really well over the two and a half weeks of pageant.



Marcie and Jamis were part of the primary..... Let me rephrase that: Marcie and Jamis were in charge of helping to run the Primary. When the primary was getting ready for there picture I was able to capture one of my favorite pictures of Marcie and Jamis. As for the primary... I don't think they ever got "ready" for there picture so I just took one of them anyways. Marcie and Jamis had there hands full but did a great job with the kids.



This is most of my family. From left you have Jamis (Samual the Lamanite), Marcie (Lamanite Dancer), Mindy (who just came out to visit which was super cool), Dad (New World Apostle), Mom (Destruction Victim), Timmy (Lamanite Battleman), and I was Nephi.

And of course there is always a little Guy Talk. http://www.guy-talk.blogspot.com/

I can't believe I never commented on this post! Sorry. I LOVED coming to visit you guys at Cumorah this year. It was such a blast and I cried the whole way home knowing it was all over. I can't wait to be reunited again for another fun and much longer trip. That flight with you and Kenny is definitely going to be one to blog about!
