This was a fun little play that they kids LOVED.

This was taken on the long car ride home. Such tired eyes!
Happy Birthday Jarom!
We went to visit my friend Alyssa and her two kids- Jarom (6) and Blair (2)- in Shawnee Kansas. We decided last minute that we should take a road trip to Nauvoo. I am not sure if we were crazy or just really brave, but we had a great time! The drive was five hours each way. On the way to Nauvoo, we stopped in Independence Missouri and at Liberty jail. We stayed the night in Keokuk and got an early start the next morning to see Carthage jail. After that, we went to Nauvoo and were overwhelmed with the amount of things there were to do! We ended up going all day without stopping and there were still so many things we wanted to see. We ended up staying another night and spending most of the next day in Nauvoo as well. After the long drive back to Shawnee, we were all ready for a good nights sleep. The next night we went to a great restraunt called the T-Rex cafe for Jarom's birthday party. It was a very cool place and the boys had so much fun there!
My friend Alyssa is living in Kansas to be near her husband who is currently in Fort Leavenworth- check out their story HERE.
