We Need the Holy Ghost

 

April Trip to Logan

 The morning after my Keynote concert, April 23rd, we drove to Logan.  We had dental appointments the next morning.  

I have had many appointments over the last year, working on getting an implant.  I finally got my new tooth.  Thank you Blake!

We planned the trip around being there for Hannah's dance recital on Friday and Lily's on Saturday night.  Hannah's was so cute.  It is beautiful, creative modern dance company and is always so well done. We have been to several of their recitals over the years.  They are always held in the beautiful  historic Ellen Eccles Theatre in Logan. They build the show around a children's book.  This year the book was The Magic Bowl.  The story is read by an elderly man in a rocking chair. Dances are created illustrating the story.  It is so creative and entertaining.

We celebrated afterward with treats at Culver's.  Blake left right after the concert to drive to Twin Falls to watch Caleb participate in a Ultimate Frisbee competition the next day. Blake and Caleb got back to Logan the next night just in time to attend Lily's dance concert.

We love to take Shonna out to lunch when we visit and have that two on one time with her.

We played games on Saturday.

Saturday evening we attended the high school dance company performance.  Lily is on the team.  I took a million pictures.  She was in several dances.  She choreographed a solo and another dance for three and participated in many others.  Here are a few of the pictures.

Her solo was beautiful.

Between numbers, they had the girls tell about their inspirations for the choreography.  I snapped a picture of hers.

A few pictures afterward.

How we love this precious girl!

She is so loved!

Lily's support team

We left early Sunday morning to drive down to South Jordan to attend church with the Prince family.  We got to their home in time to be part of their Come Follow Me lesson.  Brian was teaching about the ten commandments.  The spirit was so strong as he conducted this discussion.  Wow!  I felt it as soon as we walked into their home.  
We loved attending their church and Primary to watch Michelle lead the singing.  She does such a great job.
We left right after church for home.

It was such a great weekend with family!

Keynote Spring Season 2026

 250th birthday celebration of our country

We had a wonderful Keynote season.  Our theme was the 250th birthday of our country.  We sang many patriotic songs as well as other songs celebrating this great country.

All of us at the tabernacle.

We had 15 performances over 10 days.  It was pretty intense.  We went to many assisted living centers and rest homes.  I have pictures of the ones Ken attended, as he took the pictures.

Family Home Evening at The Meadows.  It was a huge crowd.

This picture shows the beautiful banner we displayed at our performances:  250 Years of Freedom.

I'm glad Ken got a picture of our accompanist, Carole.  She is amazing.

At each performance we gave out flags to wave.

Pam and Roger always come to our tabernacle concert.

It was a wonderful season and helped restore feelings of patriotism in me that had been waning a bit.  I now am working on the Christmas program, so I am listening to lots of Christmas song arrangements.  Christmas in May!!  I hope to have the songs chosen by the end of this month.
