Trip to Kirtland




If you look close you can see our little family!


Old Lumber Mill, The wheel reminded me of Little House on the Praire



This last Friday we drove to Kirtland, a long 2 1/2 hours. Brooklyn had a hard time the last hour so we were very excited to finally arrive. We went on the tour which took about and hour and a half. It was so neat to be able to see the old buildings and how they lived. The girls had a hard time during the tour but the sister missionary who took us through was very understanding. It was a very beautiful day and the grounds were amazing. It was so neat to think about our ancestors living the way they did. We didn't have time to go through the tour of the Temple, our girls never would have lasted, but it was neat to see it and imagine all the time and effort that was put in. I was also excited because we were able to go see one of my best friends from high school Camila Wallace Ellingson and her family in Cleveland afterwards. She fed us a delicious dinner. The girls ended up sleeping almost the whole way home which was heaven! It ended up being a great day!
