The Gilbert Temple Cultural Celebration.
I had the once in a lifetime opportunity to be a part of this special celebration!
Eric and I were able to learn and help the youth with all the songs they would
be singing, dancing to and performing for the Prophet.
After months of practice and anticipating the big day it finally arrived.
It had been an already crazy day running a marathon and all...but I quickly showered
and headed to Discovery Park in Gilbert just across the street from the Temple.
I got there just in time for dress rehearsal and took a few pics before the rains came!
It was definitely an unforgettable experience. Between the rain- feeling the spirit of the Prophet and watching over 13,000 youth dance and sing their hearts out was something I'll never forget.
I still can't get the songs out of my head!
1. The girls!
2. Love these girlies.
3. Oh- and if you didn't see it poured RAIN
the whole time!!!!!
4. A snip-it from dress rehearsal.
5. Moroni on his horse with his
Title of Liberty.
6. Really....It doesn't rain for MONTHS and
on this day it POURS.
7. Such a cool sight.
8. My official lanyard and schedule.
9. The next day Mom, Suzette, Eric and I attended the
Gilbert Temple Dedication and then spent the afternoon
walking around the Mesa Temple.
