We had good weather, and they loved the Pageant...the older boys even went to it twice.
In the Mississippi....we had never seen anyone go in it at the bottom of Parley's where the Saints crossed, but all of our family went in and had a great time....and nobody got sick, I hope (it is not a very clean river ) :)
Hannah liked it!
And Caleb did too.
Testing the waters
By the Stone bridge....a wonderful place for pictures. After a rain storm there is a lot of water coming under this bridge from the drain ditch that Joseph and the saints dug to drain Nauvoo when it was a swamp. The ditch still does that job today!
Inside the bridge
The parade at "Sunset by the Mississippi" Only Stafford and Caleb wanted to be in it
By the praire grass (grows to be 10 feet tall)...can you imagine going through this with a hand cart?!!
Naptime for the 2 little ones.
At the Smith Family Cemetary where Joseph Smith is buried
By the graves of Joseph, Hyrum, and Emma
After the wagon ride
At pioneer past times..a fun place for the kids (of all ages) to dress up and/or play pioneer games.
Bringing home the water
Grandma and the girls
The Tingey "GIRLS" !
Picnic at Pioneer Past Times
Having at the Pageant Pre-show. They have all these differ pioneer activities that you can do a couple of hours before Pageant begins. This was an especially fun place to be. I think the Tingeys went several nights Check out the beautiful sunset!
Having a sawing contest. Dave was on the other side with Caleb.
Tingeys dancing at Pioneer Past Times to the Nauvoo Brass Band. Everyone loved it except Hannah. She didn't like the pioneer bonnet either!!
