Joseph Smith Birthplace Memorial Christmas 2008

Nephi, as the innkeeper in white robe, at the live Nativity. Elder Vorwaller took these 3 photos. Night pictures are very difficult. We all tryed to get one of the actual Nativity wtih baby Jesus, but none turned out.





This is a shot is of the front gate.




Bridge all made out of pipe and lights.




This a a shot of the new Star that Elder Lamb made just as you come up the lane to the Memorial.



Photoof the Memorial with the visitor center on the right and the residence where the director lives on the left. Our landlord and his wife walked up to the memorial and took these pictures of the lights that we were privileged to put up this year. In all there are some 100,000 lights and it took us almost a month to put them all up. We rented a man lift and so at times were 60 feet in the air putting lights in the tops of tree. Not sure how I was able to be that high as heights are not my thing. They really turn out great. Thanks Stewart for the pictures.

The animals are cute and Ruby looks like she is enjoying it. The lights are beautiful in the pictures. We wish we could see them in person.
Thanks for keeping your blog updated so we can see what is happening.
