We love LOVE that our families happen to live near such wonderful LDS church sites. It was wonderful to show the kids Nauvoo. We got to take a tour of Joseph Smith's house and the store etc. It really puts things in perspective when you get to see the places where things went down. I think my favorite part was seeing the Oxen, and taking a ride in a covered wagon that they pulled. We got to learn how to make our very own rope, and how to make barrels, and candles. We really have it so easy when it comes to manual labor, it's insane.

I love those unstaged sweet moments and even more so when they get captured on film. It's not as easy to remember the mental pictures ;)
