Nauvoo

The wagon ride around Nauvoo

smelling the flowers

Rielly made beds and put the baby dolls to sleep- my little mom

Even Chris got into the Pioneer spirit

Rielly got to make a hat and walk in a children's parade

We stayed in Keokuk and spent two days in Nauvoo. We went into a lot of houses and saw some funny shows (Rielly's favorite part was the dancing and singing boys and girls!). It was such an amazing feeling to be in that historic town where so many faithful saints lived and gave everything they had to live the gospel. What a tremendous example of faith and devotion that those early saints are! How wonderful it is to see the Nauvoo Temple built there again after the saints had been driven out of the state so many years before and had to leave it behind. God works in miraculous ways!
