Last Day of Pageant



Hi my most favorite family ever!
I love my life right now :) So much fun. It's going so fast and I've got so many things to do before I come home. But I am excited to see all my loved family :)
So much happens in week, and then I don't remember what happened...so I'll try to remember. :)
Yesterday was the last day of pagaent. We went to two Vignettes (where the core cast members perform) One of them was along Parley street (the trail of hope). They would quote and act as people from the time period. It makes everything come to life. The other Vignette was in the 70's hall. They would dress up like John Taylor, Brigham Young, Wilford Woodruff and others and tell stories of being missionaries. We also got to go the the actual pagaent again. Which was a surprise. It was so good.
Sister Harmer (my companion)'s family was here this week. It was fun. Her brother actually got married in the Nauvoo temple. It was a wonderful time.
Today we recorded some of our favorite songs that we've played. We also recorded some of the songs we sing with the stage YPMs.
Our sociable went really good. It strengthened me. I think they'll be giving us a recording of it so maybe we can watch it when i get home. Maybe while i get my stinkin wisdom teeth out and sit on the couch for days :) haha just kidding.
My week has been wonderful! it's a little bit less hot, but not a whole lot. It's better though. I did get the notes. I got all the packages you sent. thank you so much! Those made my day. There were the most people ever yesterday (last night of pageant). I think this next week there will not be as many people. I saw Brother and Ssiter Condie a while ago (seminary teacher), I saw Michael Bertolio a while ago...random, There haven't been too  many people I know. But there have been quite a few from Cache Valley that I don't know. Also, whoever Brent Israelsen is... He seems to be quite known...2nd cousin?
I love you!
love,
Sister Israelsen
