This past month we had the opportunity to participate in the Nauvoo pageant. It was a lot of work, but tremendously rewarding. We really enjoyed every aspect of participating from the heat and humidity, to the chiggers and mosquitoes. Most of all, we enjoyed the wonderful people we met, and the strong spirit felt participating in such an event in such a place. It was a blessing to our life we hope to repeat in future years.
Nauvoo is such a beautiful place!
Participating in the pageant can be very tiring. How did the pioneers do it?
Boy was it hot and humid. Especially if you are eight months along. Anna is such a trooper!
Maryann enjoyed all of the new sites. Here she is with her security badge.

Bethany with the Laird's. She had the largest part of our family. She was the daughter of Robert and Becky Laird, main characters in the pageant. What a great thing for her.
Here is a close-up of Bethany with the Laird's.
The finale! If you see the dots in the upper left-hand section, that's us!
