Manti Pageant

Jake and Steph invited me to go to the Manti Pageant with them back in June. Mom came too and we all had a good time. We stayed overnight at the Manti House Bed and Breakfast (staying overnight is definitely the way to go rather than fighting the traffic!).

The beautiful Manti Temple


The Manti House Bed and Breakfast. We actually stayed across the street in the owners home. We had the 3 upstairs bedrooms and bathroom. The rooms were decorated really cute, each with their own theme.

Ellie in the Hawaiian room that she and I stayed in. Jake, Steph and Nathan stayed in the sports themed room and Mom stayed in the Princess room that even had a bed that looked like Cinderella's carriage.
Waiting for breakfast over at the Manti House.

The next morning we walked around the temple grounds before driving home. Jake and Steph were married here 7 years ago and now here they are with their 2 beautiful children!


Grandma, Nathan and Elisabeth
Nathan just laughed and laughed while repeatedly hitting Aunt Kath...what a brute!!!

We need to do that again next year. I had Ellie tell me that's where she is going to get married so that made it all worth it!

It is fun to re-live the experience through your pictures. It was a fun time and yes, next year here I come! We should make it a family tradition.
