We took a short trip to meet up with my sis Lindsay and her family in Nauvoo. 3-day trips are about perfect for us, we decided. We were lucky to get to go the temple and see the Nauvoo pageant, complete with a pre-show pioneer fair. The boys loved the kids' pioneer games, seeing their cousins, and throwing rocks into the Mississippi river.
Max got to try the drums
Max really liked all the statues of Joseph Smith and wanted pictures with each of them

They were fascinated with the oxen

We had to drag the boys away from the games

how fun! We will only be 8 hours from Nauvoo once we're at Campbell - I know that 8 hours is a LONG drive with kids, but I'm sure we'll do it at least once :) I'm glad you guys had fun - how are you feeling???? Ready to pop?
I think you might possess some of the funniest children I've ever seen/met. Well done.
