Last Monday was Missionary Family Home Evening and we got to go see the Young Performing Missionaries (YPM) strut their stuff on the outdoor stage as they practice for opening night on Memorial Day.  They've been here a couple of weeks and have been memorizing and practicing for most of that time.  They've gotten pretty good at what they will be doing for the next few months.  These YPMs will be all over Nauvoo doing performances for the visitors so it'll be pretty exciting to watch them as they get better and better over the summer.  I didn't detect any mistakes, but I probably wouldn't anyway.  The Brass Band has memorized about 80 pieces so far.  No telling how many pieces these dancers have done.

Here's our beloved Sister Missionaries.  Sister Joines is on the left and Sister Webb is in the middle.  We drive up together to Burlington Ward every Sunday for services.  They will be finishing up their mission in August, a few months ahead of us.

Here is the Brass Band playing their little hearts out for us.

Here are our two sisters doing a polka for the audience with the YPMs.  They do a couple of numbers together when they don't require a lot of strenuous things of the older missionaries.  They leave that for those younger ones.

One of my favorite pieces.  This sister is pretty talented.  We have a couple more of these coming in the next couple of weeks and Memorial Day is this coming Monday so more to come.  Won't be long and pageant will be here.  More stuff to follow.  The schedule is picking up because when I clean the dryer vents at the end of my shift at night, the filters are full.  Same goes for the trash cans.  See you all...
