I got to spend the funnest day with my sisters yesterday.  When we were together for Teina's birthday, we decided we should go see a play.  We got on the internet and saw that Mary Poppins was playing later in the summer so I got some tickets for all of us.

I made a little brunch for us to eat before the show because it started at 12:30.  Then we headed over to the Hale Theater. 

I haven't been there for about ten years so they had totally remodeled it and made it so nice!  We had good seats, but I think all the seats in that theater are good.  They sit all around the sides of a circle stage.  It seems small and like you are very close to the stage.  But then when they start the show and things are coming down from the rafters and coming up from the ground and there are little side stages too.  The scenery was really incredible, and the dancers, and the singers and the cast was just excellent. The gal that played Mary Poppins was just perfect (well practicly perfect in every way) and Burt was so so good!  He had all the mannerisms of Dick Van Dyke and even looked like him a bit.

I love all the songs from Mary Poppins and they were all so well done, I just wanted to stand up and cheer after each one!  The message is so great too...Family is the most important thing!

I just really can't say enough good about it!

After we came back to the house and had a little birthday party for Brenda.  It was really good to get a chance to visit and get caught up on each others' lives.

I got to teach the lesson today in YW about the importance of families and my heart was full as I thought of the wonderful family I have been blessed with.  My own family is just the absolute best, and don't even get me started on the grandkids and to be born to such wonderful parents and to 

have three amazing sisters that I love so much...well I feel very grateful and very blessed.
