Hill Cumorah Pageant

We were able to attend the Hill Cumorah pageant in Palmyra, NY during our trip. We were a little nervous about the kids, especially Nate, since it didn't start until 9:15pm. They actually enjoyed it though, especially the music and special effects. It was, however, a lot colder than we were expecting. We were shivering good by the time it was over!

The next morning we took a tour of the Joseph Smith Farm and the Sacred Grove before heading out. The Sacred Grove is so peaceful even with our monsters in it. They wanted to say a prayer just like Joseph Smith...you can really tell when they are feeling the spirit.

That is so neat, I am so glad that you had such a wonderful vacation. I would love to visit though Church History sights, they look beautiful. I am sure that your boys will never forget it.
