Nauvoo

Tyler and I had a pretty cool trip for Youth Conference this year.  We went on a 5 and 1/2 day trip to visit several church sites.  Some of which included:  Liberty Jail, Nauvoo, Cathage Jail, Adam-ondi-ahman, and Winter Quarters.  Although it was an action packed week we had moments where we felt the spirit and built great memories.  Although we went together we didn't see each other very much as we were in different groups and on different buses.  I did however manage to ask a friend to take a picture of Tyler in front of Cathage Jail.  His favorite place on the trip was Adam Ondi Ahman.  It was not the peaceful place we thought it was going to be as when we got there.   It was loud with cicada bugs.  This was really distracting, but our stake president reminded us that the noise and distraction was a good representation of real life.  As we try to feel the spirit it isn't always peaceful and quiet, but we have to work to feel the spirit.  My favorite part of the trip was getting to do a session in the Nauvoo Temple.  It was so beautiful inside.

Also loved any moment I saw this kid.

While we were gone Monty and the Boys had fun.  They went to a Denver Rockies baseball game and were in a huge storm.  Thankfully they made it home safe.
