Out To Visit Palmyra

What a wonderful family experience this trip was. I had everything going against me enjoying my time there... Long drive, pregnant and uncomfortable, sick with a head cold, sleeping over night in a hotel, traveling with a 10 month old... it really should have been a total flop BUT it was a lot of fun and I seemed to have just enough energy to push through the rest of the day.

Ryan's Mom and little brother flew out to see a few of the church's historical sites and so we decided to make the drive out there to see them. Ryan's mom was more than happy to watch Olivia while Ryan and I spent some time in the temple. Our time in the temple was much anticipated and much needed... both Ryan and I left feeling so refreshed and our tolerance levels for surviving out in the world so much higher.

After the temple we visited a few of the sites in Palmyra, like the Grandin Press, Hill Cumorah Visitors Center and the Whitmer Farm. We had been to Palmyra a handful of times before so we decided to visit the places we didnt on our last trip.

Here are the pictures from our trip:

Our first stop after arriving to Rochester was to see Grandma Trish!
