Manti Pageant


Soon after we arrived home form Germany we headed to Utah for Kevin's cousin Cassie's wedding... too bad it wasn't to go to Lake Powell (but I won't bring that up again). We headed down on a Tuesday afternoon and arrived there just a few minutes after Pat and Stacey. We spent the night relaxing and playing with the Ipad and Grandma Berg's tablet. The next day was the wedding. Before the wedding we made a stop at an Italian market and then headed to the wedding where we waited and waited and waited some more. I have learned wedding are pretty much just waiting for everyone else besides the bride and groom. The bride was beautiful and they looked very happy together. After a quick shopping trip we headed to lunch at Madox which was yummy and then back to Grandmas.

We were the first back to Grandma's and after some confusion we forgot the code to her security system. The security guy came over the speaker and we tried to explain that we were grandkids and we thought we gave the correct password. Next thing we know Pat and Grandma came home and said the police were outside. Luckily they got there just in time so they did not have to bail us out of jail. That night was spent at a beautiful wedding reception hanging out with family.

The next day we headed to Mr. Macs to get Kevin a new suit. He sure looked handsome trying on all those suits. We finally decided on a suit and some new ties and then headed to lunch at the Cheesecake Factory. YUM!

My parents also headed down to Utah that day and picked us up at Grandma Bergs. We left our car there and then headed to Manti for the Manti Pageant. We ate a good turkey dinner at the stake center in Manti and then found our seats and relaxed in the cool shade. The temple was beautiful, the pageant was good, and the company was great!




We drove back to Provo that night where we searched for cold medicine for me (I ALWAYS get sick before or while I am in Utah). By the time we got to the hotel it was late and I drugged up on Nyquill and went to sleep. The next day we went and saw my Uncle Josephs new house and drove around spanish fork where my dad grew up and listened to all his stories about causing trouble there. They also showed us his very unique and beautiful elementary school. We stopped by Grandmas on our way home and actually picked up Carly's new car (She had to go home before they bought her new one so she took ours and we brought hers). Overall it was a quick very fun trip!
