Nauvoo

This was our last night at Nauvoo. We all went and took pictures in front of the Nauvoo temple.
Alden loved being able to spend some more time with his Uncle David.
The sunsets in Nauvoo were beautiful. One night we went and watched the sunset on the Mississippi.

Here we are at Carthage Jail. As you can see, Alden had to learn to get naps whenever and wherever he could.

We loved being able to spend time with so many cousins! Alden loved all of the attention and being able to play with so many wonderful cousins.

Riverwalk

Suzanne came and visited us before we went to Nauvoo. We visited Michael's school and went to the Riverwalk for the first time with Alden.



Alden is now eating in style. Grandma Great Fuller found him a wonderful high chair. We all love it!

And were back again...

The last post was about just getting back from South Carolina. We were home for about 2 days, got things put together, welcomed Michael's sister Suzanne, and headed to Nauvoo, IL.
It was a wonderful but quick trip. We loved being able to see all of Michael's family and spend some time with them, while seeing so many historical sites of our ancestors.

It was also neat to be able to have some of our family come and stay with us here in our home. We love having visitors.. wink wink nudge nudge

All in all it was a great trip, but we are glad to be home, and glad to know that we will be staying here for a while. (I think Alden is excited about this too, he can return to having naps and being his normal self once again)

And were back



Here we are having our 4th of July BBQ, It was wonderful, full of lots of good food!!

Alden especially liked being able to spend so much time with his newly returned Uncle, David!




He also got to spend some good time with Grandma and Grandpa

We also got to spend some time with Grandma Fuller, playing the piano, and playing some good games of chicken foot.




Alden learned a lot of things while we were gone.. He loves climbing up stairs and can even go down some of the time. He also loves brushing his teeth with Mommies toothbrush.

Michael and I made a trip with Uncle Gordon to Greenwood. They have a great stadium and high school!
