Fun Filled Weekend Part 1: Hill Cumorah Pageant

One of the items on our east coast bucket list was to see the Hill Cumorah pageant in Palmyra, NY. We figured this was the year to go. We went with two other family's, Jason & Jessica Blankenberg and Wyatt & Cate Grantham.

Palmyra is a 6 hour drive from Boston, so we left about 7 and got there around 1. We had lunch at this little hamburger joint and then went to the Sacred Grove. We walked through and enjoyed the nice spirit and peace in the woods. Then we toured the rest of the Smith farm and homes.

These are just some pretty flowers. I just got a new lens for my camera so it was fun to play around.

Lyla decided to learn a new trick while we there and she got pretty good at standing unassisted. I think the keys helped her balance. She's a cutie and we LOVE her!

Emily had fun running around the fields. She needed to get some energy out after being cooped up in the car all morning.
The pageant was really cool and we are really glad we went! They did some effects with water that really made it fun. Wyatt and Cate were smart and went to the pageant grounds before lunch and saved some seats on the 4th row so we had a great view!
