For the last 4 months the Oquirrh Mountain Temple District, which includes like 10 stakes, has been practicing for this celebration. The celebration was held at the Conference Center in downtown Salt Lake. In the celebration there was dancing and singing mostly for the prophet. Thomas S. Monson and Henry B. Eyring were there to watch our hard work in celebrating the temple. There was an enormous choir that sang throughout the program. And there were a lot of dances. It was like a history of utah that started with Native Americans (that dance was my favorite) then went to pioneers(there were lots of those dances), then Immagrants, then 1920's to 40's to 50's, there was a military tribute, then polynesian, latin american, and asian dances (asian was my favorite too!), then the choir sang again and it ended. I was apart of the 1950's dance! I was told that it was everyone's favorite! I was a waitress which explains the pink outfit. I also had rollerblades with my costume but i wasn't wearing them in those pictures. It was a really neat experience and i had a lot of fun and met some new friends! There was a backdrop of a mountain behind the dancers on stage and there were stairs that went up it. Anyway, at the end when the choir was singing the last song "Come to the Mountain of the Lord", the Oquirrh Mountain temple rose up at the top of the mountain peak covering it up. It was so cool! All of the practices paid off for the final performance! It was so spiritual and it was awesome! I thought i did pretty well too! Well i'm getting a DVD of the performance in a month or something so whoever wants to watch just come on over or tell me! I hope you like the pictures :)
