Palmyra, New York

We made it to Palmyra in good time and started looking at sites right away. This is us at the temple and behind us is the Sacred Grove. It just doesn't get any better than that!


We went and saw the Peter Whitmer farm where the church was first organized. Jack was out playing by the fence. He reached over the fence and was trying to reach an apple when he got stuck! It was so funny! He would push with his hands to try and get off and then he would just rock back over. We probably should have rescued him sooner but we all had to giggle and take some pictures!




Having fun with the Grandpa's!!

This is at the Peter Whitmer farm. Denise is closing her eyes but I still thought this was a cute picture.

Sharla and me at the Smith farm visitor's center. Sharla cracks me up! She is always saying something funny.

Four generations in the sacred Grove.


More Sacred Grove shots.


Justin being silly at the Erie Canal. Jack was cracking up.


We met up with Jonathan and Daija and some of their friends from Boston. Justin's parents and grandparents were so nice and watched Jack for us so we could actually enjoy the pageant. (We stayed with him the night before so they could go and see it.) It was fun to see Jonathan and Daija and see Daija's cute pregnant belly!
