17 Miracles - Must See Movie

I just saw an email from Desert Book telling me that this movie was in our area.  So Olivia and I went this afternoon to the matinee.  If you know me, I abhor spending $7.50 on a matinee.  Even going to the cheap seats with food ticket is a big stretch for me.  But when I watched the trailer and read the reviews on this movie, I knew I wanted to go, especially with tomorrow being July 24 our day of celebrating the pioneers and their trek to Zion.

It was so good that I am going to take my whole family to the movie on Monday for FHE!  It was such a beautiful movie.  Even though I had many tears through the whole film, there were also little glimpses of humor.  Olivia also loved the movie, and wanted to share some scenes with Paul - but he had her wait because he wants to watch it, too.

I hope you all take the time and spend the money to watch this movie, I know it will be in our area a week (through Thursday).  It was especially touching to me after just visiting Martin's Cove with my family a few weeks ago (I will post about that later - I have a lot of catch up to do) and having been on two youth stake treks to the cove with Paul.  It is near and dear to our hearts.
