Palmyra Pagent

We decided last minute to jump in the car and go see the Palmyra Pageant, neither Wes nor I had seen it before so we buzzed over to Palmyra. It's about 3 hours from us so and we were excited to take the kids for some culture. We sat in the back on a blanket, sprayed ourselves down with bug spray and spread out the snacks. The kids loved it and Wes and I also though it was pretty cool. During the pageant towards the end Reagan had to go to the bathroom so I took her the short hike up to the flushing potties. I didn't realize that we were so close to the end of the pageant and while we were in the bathroom we heard all the thundering and lightning sounds and the earth quakes from Christ's Death, we started to hustle and then the beginning of His appearance to the people in America and we were scrambling to get out of the bathroom! Reagan started panicking saying "Mom we are missing it! Jesus is coming to American and we are missing it!" She was next to tears and I felt pretty bad, I kept thinking good thing it was only a show otherwise I would have really let her down! We ran out of the restroom in time to see the depiction of the Savior in America and the remnants from the floods and earthquakes. The lesson here was, know how long the show is and make sure you don't miss the important stuff for a potty break.

It was a really nice weekend even missing a bit of the show.
