Manti



We loaded up and headed down to Manti this weekend to go see the Mormon Miracle Pageant. Buddy and my parents came too and we had a lot of fun. Here is a picture of the girls and Kola taking a bath the first night. Poor kid is going to have night mares because they kept playing with there barbies and princess toys. I guess we are going to raise a metro-sexual. Ha, ha, just kidding. Well, something funny and most precious about the weekend is that Buddy just had to see Samuel the Lamanite. He wanted to say hi to him and give him a bottle of water before his performance. (So, without Buddy knowing Andy went and asked the kid who was playing Samuel's part if he would come say hi to Buddy before the performance and he did)
My dad and Buddy were standing at the back of the temple grounds when Andy and Samuel came walking towards, Oh boy did Buddy's eyes get HUGE! He was speechles! Just sat there, star struck, and stared at the kid as if it really was Samuel the Lamanite. How innocent he is. And that one small act made Buddy's night and weekend. He couldn't stop talking about how he saw Samuel the lamanite and if we all saw him during the performance run up the wall. He just kept talking about it none stop. We actually had to drive up to the Temple to show him the wall and the stairs that Samuel climbed. Oh what a champ!
He is a special boy that we all have been blessed in knowing. Love ya Bud.

Buddy is a great example of the kind of person we all should be. Yay to Andy for making that possible. Sounds like a great family trip!!
