Over Memorial weekend we took a small road trip to Nauvoo. I had never been so it was a lot of fun. Layla loved it. Even walking through the houses, when there was no prize! The kids had been asking when they would get to go on vacation(our friends went on "vacation" to Disney world). Luckily they thought that was good enough to be vacation. Justin's parents went with us and it was a lot of fun. Plus really nice to have 4 adults to 3 kids. I like those odds. Steve and Mary Ann, Thanks a ton for such a fun time and for all your hard work in our yard.(I was a slave driver the rest of their visit, making them do all our landscaping.)

Ride that pony!
Layla was so into everything. Here she is marching with the missionaries.
She got chosen to be the helper in all the demonstrations. Here she is oiling the wagon wheel.
