Grandpa and Kamber traveled to Aaron with Suzanne and Michael, and they had a great visit on the way, besides enjoying the company of the two dogs. Ginger had a hard time staying seated but with a few words from Grandpa she kept laying down.

Other family members came as they could. It was great fun to be together and it was great to see cousins who hadn't seen each other for years have a great time visiting, and neat some of the newest members of the family.

Aarons son Sack always like to keep track of Grandpa Lindman and discovered his photo number and likes to call him.

With Mine Own Hand.

President Ezra Taft Benson, was quoted in the Ensign, Nov. 1988 saying
"I have a vision of artists putting into film, drama, literature, music, and paintings
great themes and great characters from the Book of Mormon."
So the musical drama "With Mine Own Hand: The Musical Account of Nephi" was written and will made its Utah debut on the Pardoe stage of the Harris Fine Arts Center August 19th-22nd. Originating in the Pacific Northwest, with a cast from Southwest Washington and metropolitan Portland, Oregon, the show will be the first production coming from out-of-state to perform during Campus Education Week.

For music and video samples, show information, cast/creator bios, or to purchase a CD go to: www.nephi-story.com

Special note
Rebbecca reported that even little Mckay got into the spirit of things, and was effected by his parents being apart of the cast. “ I didn't realize how much McKay has been absorbing the music and dance to this Nephi play until recently when I had the CD on (he calls it "the dance music") and he started not only singing all the WORDS to the songs but also incorporating many of the CHOREOGRAPHY MOVES at the end (last video)--and in time with the music! I'm such a PROUD mama! (This is "The Book, The Gift"--first scene of the play)” for other great photos go to their blog page at http://danwebbfamily.blogspot.com/
