SPRING BREAK BABY!!!!!!!!

Beware: It's a LONG post!!
Spring Break this year was AWESOME! I am not gonna lie. We had such a fabulous time. We did a spur of the moment trip to Nauvoo... It was SO wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





































We ran into the Sorensons from our ward surprisingly while we were in Nauvoo!! :) It was so fun to see them there!! :)









The women's garden was one of my favorite spots. Awesome statues paying tribute to womanhood. I got a bit choked up in this spot with my sweet hubby and daughters :)
Crossing the Mississippi river for the first time.... heading into Illinois. Our girls first time seeing the mighty Mississippi.


















HIGHLIGHTS OF OUR TRIP:
- Easter at the Cranes with the Youngs- delightful dinner, dessert and Easter egg hunt! :)
-Winter Quarters- Dave has ancestors buried there.
-Nauvoo- wagon and carriage ride, President's houses, Rendezvous, womens garden. Nauvoo temple-baptisms and endowment session.
-Carthage Jail
-Kansas City Temple Open House
-Liberty Jail
-Staying at Tim & Jalenes house, dinner/movie night
-42 hours in the car laughing, singing, talking, rocking out, reading, studying, watching movies... JUST BEING TOGETHER. This was a great trip for our family even though it was spur of the moment it was SO worth it.
