Small World

I was just searching the internet for pictures of the Hill Cumorah Pageant, and accidently ran across this blog.  It had wonderful pictures of the Pageant on it, so decided to scroll to through the whole thing.  Funny thing was, I ran across a picture of Hannah.  Who would have thought!  This is what the mother had posted.

"I accidentally bumped into this sweet girl, and for some reason I felt prompted to stop and ask her what character she was playing. I was with Sierra and it was funny to look at the both of them. They kept looking at each other as if they knew one another. Sure enough they did. Sierra met Hannah at the Boston temple this past Spring break. They were both doing baptisms for the dead, and didn't have a chance to talk. Hannah was with her youth group from New Hampshire and Sierra was with her dad. They made sure that evening to exchange information so they can keep in touch. It sure is a small world ." http://rjorgensenfamily.blogspot.com/2011/07/hill-cumorah-pageant.html#comment-form

I thought this was pretty neat to run across.  It gave me the chills to think about how they keep popping into each others lives.

Moving Again

We are currently in the process of moving to our new house in Cabot, VT.  Well honestly, we have been in the process since about beginning of May,  but the end is finally in sight.

The new house is full up of boxes, and we are gathering a few last major things........you know, food, matresses, couches, etc.  This is how we move mattresses in our house.........and I admit, I tried it once too.   So fun, reminded of me of when I was little, and would slide down the stairs at my friend Doug's house.

REALLY, I DO HAVE A VIDEO, BUT I CAN'T GET IT TO LOAD...WILL KEEP TRYING!

Hill Cumorah Pageant 2011

Our family got accepted to be in the Hill Cumorah Pageant this year in Palmyra, N.Y.  We had a wonderful time meeting people, and sharing our testimonies of the gospel.  There is so much to share about this experience, so I will just put on a few of my favorite pictures.  We have nearly 300 pics of the whole 2 weeks and would love to share them all.
Jacob was Lemuels son.  He was in the wilderness, boat, promised land and ascention scene. 
 Willem was a New World Child, and was in the ascention scene.  He got to touch Jesus's hand.
My little Nephite Boys 
Closest we got to a family picture........plus 2. 
Second costumes.......John was a new world Deciple.  Hannah through rocks at Samuel the Lamanite, and Elijah and Caleb were Lamanites. 
I was a Noah Citizen,  along with Isaac.  We were in the scene where Noah burns the prophet Abinadi. 
 The little girl in pink was in my Primary group, her name was also Jenny. 

I was also in the destruction scene, and died. 

Hannah's first costume........she chased Lehi and his family out of Jerusalem. 
Caleb and Elijah as Lamanite battlemen, and Jesse and Zach as Nephite Battlemen.

Samuel was  Alma convert "believer" child in the Waters of Mormon scene.
