Nauvoo





Todd and I had the wonderful opportunity to go to Nauvoo this last Sunday. Neither of us had ever been so it was a neat experience. We were able to go to the temple, take the Community of Christ tour of the Joseph Smith properties and also go to Carthage. The whole time Todd and I kept saying how lucky and happy we are to be members of the church and to have the truth in our lives. This adventure was a testimony builder and we are so glad we did it. We are thankful to have our testimonies and to know that we, and the rest of our family, will be together forever. We are thankful for Joseph Smith and all he did, and the pioneers. We also kept saying how excited we are to be done with this job for the summer and come home!!! Can't wait to see you all!

We love Nauvoo! I'm so glad you got to go. It is wonderful to visit the church sites and get a feel for those early saints.

Hello there! It's Tara from, "It's A Girl Thing!" I read your comment/question on colored photos...and MY answer would be this...the reason that photo display was so stunning was becaue she had painted her walls that lovely shade of green, which made the b&w photos POP out! You could reverse it...and use a white wall with a black ledge to make your COLOR photos POP! I hope that helps a little. You & yer husband look darling together, by the way! Take care, Tara
