Twin Falls Youth Cultural Celebration

We had the opportunity to attend the Twin Falls Youth Cultural Celebration on August 24, 2008. What a awesome experience it was as the Twin Falls Temple was dedicated the next day. The whole Richard and Elsie Garrard Family was there. (Emily, Jaeli, Cassie, Julie, Jenny Marie, and Jake)
Christy and Kohlton enjoy a moment together while we are waiting for the performance to begin.
Our Beloved Prophet Thomas S. Monson looks out over the youth, and talks to them. Wow, this was impressive. Elsie led the audience in "We Thank Thee Oh God for a Prophet". Also another lifetime opportunity.
This is Elsie leading the Choir of angelic voices. These youth practiced and practiced for this event. I think there were over a thousand youth. Christy and Dave wrote the opening song called "The Living Waters". We were so thrilled to be a part of this celebration and family.
We also got to see a lot of our old friends from Burley. These are our neighbors from Oakley Ave. Everyone has grown up and it was wonderful to see them. It was like going home. We are so thankful for all our friends and family!
