The beautiful Kirtland Temple

Smith family home

Palmyra Temple. We went to church this day with the Palmyra Ward and then down the street to the temple. Everything was so beautiful.

Stealing a picture of asn Amish buggy. These people were so nice.

Fields and fields of beans we had to stop to see exactly what was growing . We think they were white beans.

There is just one word beautiful!!!!!!!

These flowers were outside the Kirtland Temple. They were just a big ball of beautiful.



So last week I took a trip back East. I have never been out this way but it was absolutely Beautiful. We went to Ohio for the Country Living Fair which was really fun, Then next day we went to Kirtland. Saturday night we drove to Buffalo New York and stayed and then got up and drove to Palmyra and went to church at the Palmyra Ward. We got to see the Palmyra Temple, the Sacred Grove, book shop where the first copies of the Book of Mormon were published and off to see the Whitmer home. Monday Johnson farm and tusday Amish country. Can I just say it was beautiful and I could live there any day.

This is a picture of the cake Marci made for Trinitee's B-day. Sponge Bob of coarse.

Didn't she do a great job!

We had a busy weekend. I had the grandparents breakfast at Trin and Austins school and after that was the award assembly and my little Austin got Student of the month. He was so proud. He is really enjoying school. Saturday was Trins birthday and we had a party for her at the Peter Piper Pizza. She was so excited. Landon got to come and go with us.

Saturday Jacob had the opportunity to Baptize his friend Covy. I was so proud of him. My babies are growing up and its out of my control.

All of this while I am trying to pass kidney stones gotta luv that!
