So for this years celebration , the theme was LDS pioneer days. So we women mmebers came to the anniversary Celebration dressed in costumes of those years....in aprons, in old English long dress,with headresses reminiscent of the old England ladies!What a sight to see. Its as if i was in a time machine back to those pioneer days.
