Day Four of Family Fun Week 2008

Day Four is our trip to Manti for the

"Mormon Miracle Pagent"

This is the main event for our Family Trip this year. For those that don't know, our Mother passed 5 years ago in May. We have gotten together every year since then in May on the week that mom passed. We promised her and our selves that we would not allow us to grow apart. Mom taught us that Family is all that you have and that matters. We decided when she passed that one of our most favorite memories were our trips that mom made sure that we had every year, therefor we would have a vacation together every year. We have done different things each year, but even in the toughest times we have made sure that we have been together. This year was an exception to our normal time frame.

Our last vacation with all of us together including mom was 20 years ago, and we had came to Utah and ended the trip by going to the Pagent. So last year we decided to change our normal plans and have our vacation in June so that we could all go to the Pagent together again. It was the first time that my sisters have been since that trip 20 years ago. It was a great day and trip for us. It was nice to all be together again, Mom was right Family is all you've got that matters. She would say friends come and go, but your family doesn't. I would like to add that you also have those times when you have a few good friends that stand by you always, and can be considered as close to you as family. I am very grateful for both!!

THANKS MOM FOR GIVING US EVERYTHING YOU GAVE US, TAUGHT US, AND INSTILLED IN US.

YOU DID A GREAT JOB!!

AND WE'RE MAKING IT!!
