Missouri/Illinois

We were home for two weeks after going to my family reunion in CA, and then Matt and Mary came for a few days before we headed on our vacation to Nauvoo with them.

We took them to Chuy's (TWICE!-yum), to Crystal Bridges, to the Walmart Museum and Spark Cafe, and to the lake.







On Sunday after church we headed to Kansas City and went to Independence and then to Liberty Jail.


That night and the next we stayed at the Great Wolf Lodge. So fun!!









Then we drove to Richmond, Haun's Mill, and Far West, before heading to our cute and really nice bed and breakfast near Adam-ondi-Ahman. We did AoA and Amish country before then taking off for Nauvoo.










Then to Nauvoo! Wow we had such a great time. Our hotel had a balcony that looked out to the temple. We saw the British and Nauvoo pageants (and actually REALLY preferred the British pageant), saw a cute kids' play where Tanner was pulled up on stage, went to the temple (and Emma and Emily got to do baptisms), saw lots of the old homes and took a LOT of tours, visited Carthage, and just enjoyed being there. We all loved it.
