Day 6 (Part 2)--Nauvoo

 Our original plan was to check into our motel & then go to Nauvoo for the rest of the afternoon/evening.  But since it was so late, we went right to Nauvoo.  The temple is sooooo beautiful!! (of course)
 this is the statue of Joseph & Hyrum as they are leaving Nauvoo (for the last time) heading to Carthage.
 Sun stones w/trumpets & the stars
 and the moons
 Brienna & Zane walking around the temple.
 looking back at the temple (from the Trail of Hope down Parley St.)
 So beautiful--but super hot!
 The kids at the Mississippi River--touching it & throwing in rocks.
 Ben, Callum Brienna, Emmalee & Zane
Pamela had to go get a picture also!
(I will probably edit this since I don't have Pamela's pictures on my computer yet & she took some pictures with her camera)
