Mission Accomplished!

Yesterday I went on a 22 mile bike ride at Antelope island.  It was the worst best idea I ever had!  Confident that when they advertised it as family friendly their should have been a caution underneath that advertisement saying it wasn't Chelsea friendly.  I thought I was going to die!

Rachel and I ready to go!

Our decorated helmets!

The whole crew!

All ready to go!

The half way point FINALLY came!!!  Not going to lie before this moment I contemplated many times just turning around to the start line instead of making the loop.  I even stopped at one point for a water break and looked around me to see how many people would see me give up.  But I really had to go to the bathroom and I could tell I was almost there so I pressed forward!

Half way!

 Finished and still smiling!  Thanks Rachel for pushing me through!

I may have a permanent implant of my bike seat on my bum and my knees may feel like they should be on an 89 year old grandma's body but I'm proud of myself that I didn't give up!

The Mormon Miracle Pageant

Yesterday I went down to Manti for the wonderful Mormon Miracle Pageant.  It was a blast and a half! We went to the Craft fair and Jeni found this wonderful hat.  I always knew she should have been a blond. 

I love snow cones!  We got some grommet snow cones that had ice cream in them they were delicious!

Random Piano man in the middle of the street.  If I had any talent for the piano I would have waited in line to play it.

Jeni and I in front of the Manti Temple!

 The whole gang that went down to see the pageant.

 Gorgeous Sunset.

The Manti Temple.

During the performance they had a live Moroni... confident I would have peed my pants because it would be so scary to be on top of the temple!  But at the same time how cool would it be to be up there.

This was my favorite scene.  When Christ comes to visit the people in the Americas.  How great will be the day when he shall come again!
