This show is called Rendezvous. Your father and I will be IN IT starting next week. I am shaking in my boots. So many songs to learn and actions and when we are supposed to be here and there. Besides this we are also working on Sunset on the Mississippi, which I actually have my first solo part in next week!!!!! I am in the song about “Away With Rum,” . My part is about alcohol back rubs being a crime……..it’s worse that straight gin, just think of the liquor absorbed by the skin! Pretty cute.
Besides these things of course, your dad is working all over the place, this week. He’s been installing the pipes for their air compressors. By the time we get home I am hoping he is able to build our own house.
So I am working sites and hardly ever in one place more than a day. This week I am going to be in 5 different places!!!!! There are pages of scripts to learn for each site. My head is just spinning……
She is supposed to have a pickle face!
Don’t these hats just FLATTER each and every sister? It’s a wonder anyone ever got married!
This is our cast. We will be with these people until we are done. They are wonderful and I have great friends of all ages. I think that I am the youngest one but such great people.
I worked in the John Taylor home for two days this week! It is a beautiful home and such a sweet spirit. He was an amazing man and became the third prophet of the church. He was with Joseph Smith when he was killed in the Carthage Jail. There are wonderful stories that go along with his conversion and his life. I quite enjoy taking people on the tours and learning about who they are, where they are from, and getting to know them. It isn’t as hard to share my feelings about the gospel.
This toy horse was made by John Taylor for his son, Joseph. When they were driven out of Nauvoo, his son was crying because they had left this horse behind. After crossing the frozen Mississippi into Iowa, he went back in the dark of night, back across the river to retrieve this horse for his son.
Kitchen.
Children’s bedroom. “Sleep tight don’t let the bed bugs bite came from these hay filled mattresses.
Potty chair for Delaney!!!
John Taylor’s shaving stand and hat box.
The parlor. This house is truly so pretty, it is one of four houses that have consistently been lived in since the l840’s. It did not have to be rebuilt.
Beautiful staircase. Anyway, between getting home so late at night, trying to memorize, and meetings. I AM TIRED BUT HAPPY…
I am so thrilled to hear that you are happy. I am sure you are exhausted but it warms my heart to hear you say you are happy. I can only imagine the amazing experiences you are giving anyone lucky enough to get you as a tour guide. I can't wait to be in your group. Love you!
ReplyDeleteHow sanitary is this Delaney potty chair? Pretty sure we will still be trying to potty train by the time we see you so save it. Love you both, so happy to hear that you are happy.
