After Jaxon's appointment we went to Nauvoo for a few days to see the church history sites and watch the Nauvoo and British Pageants. It was a fun family trip! I find the stories of the early saints give me great motivation to be a little better in my own life - I hope my children feel inspired by the faith/strength of their ancestors as well.

Super Cute horses...Maggie was convinced that we need one of our own....um no
Maggie purchased a fan and quill from the gift shop - very fancy.

and of course as is always the case on vacation...we ate quite a bit of junk food :)
All in all a pretty fun little getaway - love spending time together as a family!
