Reese absolutely loved her costume in Nauvoo this year. She was so excited each night when it was time to get dressed into costumes. Her favorite part ... other than going on stage... was being able to twirl in her dress. On this night, I just snapped a bunch of shots... barefoot and all. She cried the night we had to turn her costume back in. She was quite the little actress also. She was cast as Fiona Laird, daughter of Robert and Becky Laird. She loved her time on stage with Shanti and Darren (Becky and Robert) even if the first night she cried into the microphone..."I want my Mommy!" From that night on... she was loving her time on the stage. She could often be heard making up her own lines... talking about loving the temple. Shanti and Darren were very good to ad lib with her during the show as she talked about the temple. It was such a great experience for us all, but it was an extra special treat to see how our children were able to participate and share their love for the gospel... no matter how young they were. We can only hope that we will be blessed again next year to have the opportunity to go and serve. Only 13 more days until applications open for next year!!!

She is so cute! You should sew her her own "pioneer" costume - then she could wear it all the time!
