Nauvoo!!

A couple of weekends ago we went to Nauvoo, IL with Julia. We had a very enjoyable time. We stayed with our good friends the Ivies. They were very hospitable as always. We also stopped by the fudge shop while we were there, which is a must for anyone that goes to Nauvoo. While we walked around town we stopped at Latter-Day Harvest and got a free DVD on Gordon B. Hinkley. Pretty sweet in my opinion.


The only bad thing that happened while we were there was Pete caught his leg on fire. It is a kind of funny situation since Pete has caught his leg on fire before in a very similar situation. I guess maybe he doesnt learn from history. :) or maybe it takes two times in order to learn.

This picture doesnt really do his burn justice. It was a lot worse than it looks in this picture. It's finally starting to heal. Another thing that we did while we were there was stop for lunch. It was pretty tasty.



We stopped to look at the temple while we were there as well.

We also went to the Nauvoo Pageant while we were there. It was the first time I had seen the new one. I really liked it.



On the ride home we stopped at a Mexican restaurant and Julia kept speaking Spanish with the waiter who waited on us.

Mmm...Nauvoo fudge! It's worth the 5 1/2 hour trip just for THAT! I guess that pageant isn't bad, either. ;)
