Music and The Spoken Word

So I have mentioned before, how I sing with the Choral Arts Society of Utah. Well our director, also works on the technical staff for Music and the Spoken Word. A while ago, he invited anyone who wanted to, to come watch what he does, as well as all the goings on backstage! I was SO excited!! Well, the Sunday before we left for Myrtle Beach, was my turn! I was a little nervous, because Sat, was also my first day working until 1 am. But it was fine.

When I got there, I was greeted by one of the nicest ladies from choir! Back when we first found out about Jack, she emailed me, and told me she was praying for me, and she loved me. I will never forget that!

Anyway... I found out tonight, she has a BLOG!! You KNOW how I love when friends have blogs!! :) I didn't get the camera till the day before we left for MB, so I didn't have it for Sunday. I was SO bummed, cuz you ALL know, how I love to document things in picture! Anita had her's and she is just like me!! I took some pictures for her, from my angle, and we had such a good time! I would tell you more, but she did it BEAUTIFULLY, so I'll just direct you to her! It was perfect, to be there with her. Just like me, she grew up watching it, with not very many LDS people around, and Music and The Spoken Word, and Donny and Marie, were our only link to Mormons outside our little worlds!

So go read all about our adventure! And... Thanks my friend!!

Man you watch the show and think it would be so easy. Sounds complicated but totally cool. Neat that you got to go. Did you say Hi to Sterling.

Thanks for the sweet comments. We did have a fun time there. I am glad we got to share this special moment together. It did take me practically all day to download all the pictures and clips, then write about it and put the pictures and movies in the appropriate places. Glad you liked it.
