Our cultural week

The last day of school was June 9. We had tickets that night to see Little Mermaid at Tuachan in St. George on June 3 and then we were going to see Grease on June 9. We left late after Talon and Tiffany got off work, so we just made homemade sub sandwiches and ate a picnic up there while waiting for the gates to open. It was a breezy, cool wonderful evening.

After the show, we were going to drive home instead of spending the night so we stopped to get pictures with the cast. Taz's favorite was Ariel.

Garry and I loved Flotsam and Jetsom so they got their pictures with them too. Ursala was so cool, but wasn't out at the end for pictures.

We got home at 1:30 and Cynjyn had to be up and out the door by 8 am for roll call for the play Suesical that she was in. She was a bird girl and was in most of the scenes. She did great as did the whole cast. There were 6 girls from our ward in it so that made it super fun too.

Cynjyn had a couple of costume changes as she was a who and a fish and a jungle girl too.

They perfomed it at 11 and again at 1. It was really cute.
We got to St. George early for Grease, so we went to the Visitors Center at the temple and then ate at the Pizza Factory before the show.

We didn't bother getting pictures with the cast since it was the same cast, but we snapped one of the stage.

On Saturday, Cynjyn had an end of school pool party. I had Lindsey make a cake for it. I told her I wanted our pool and some girls playing around it. She did an ADORABLE job and I thought it turned out perfect. Better than I imagined. It was a yellow cake with bavarian cream filling and chocolate frosting. The girls loved it and were begging for body parts to eat!

Four more girls ended up showing up after this picture was taken. The party was from 11-2.

We had the girls bring snacks and fruit and we BBQed hamburgers and hotdogs and had some soda.

Taz was the lone boy and after ignoring them for a long time, he finally got in on the fun and food.

That night was our ward Luah. Tanner danced a ballroom number with two other couples and Tanner, Taz and Garry danced the Haka with the Young Men. Garry was pulled on stage with the bishopric to do a ball swinging thing impromptu and I danced a hula with the Young Women. I only got pictures of us at the end because I was video taping everything else.

Cynjyn brough Alexa and Rebecca to it. It was from 5-8 and it was really fun.

After the Luah, Talon, Tanner and Taz went to the school to play Capture the Flag with all the Young men. While there, Talon triped and fell and ended up at the ER on Sunday. He has a fractured wrist and has to wear this for 10 days.

I have really loved all the plays and fun things we've been to in the past two weeks.
