"Oh, I'm the Happiest Christmas Tree!" John & I went to a friendly tree farm today to get a Christmas Tree. The Tree Farm turned out to be someone's yard. We got the only one that didn't look like a bush, i.e. wider than tall.
Mikayla lookin' all spiffy for her Miss Mansifeld competition. She did a great job and was hilarious in her video.
Washington DC in all it's spendor and crazy people running everywhere.
It really is the in thing to do to jog by all the national monuments there.

What a beautiful day in Washington DC! The funniest part was that we had to go through a major security check just to eat lunch.
We felt wild in the Natural Museum of History.

Eliza has at least doubled in size since I saw her last. Everywhere we went, people asked if she wanted a kid's meal and a high chair. We just laughed and thought, "she's only 3 months old!"
Misha, Eliza, Shauna, and I had so much fun together. I just sat back and let the experts Misha & Shauna show me around Palmyra. What times we had!

More Stops in Palmyra


This was probably my favorite site. What an amazing miracle it was for the Book of Mormon to be published the first time!
I am obsessed with "It's a Wonderful Life!" I loved frolicking across the Bailey bridge.


The Peter Whitmer Farm. It was so fun to be here and watch Misha pretend she had never been here before:) Eliza really liked the rug inside, not hesitating to spit up on it.

Our New Old Desk

We recently bought an old desk at a 2nd hand store, and I had the
crazy idea to paint it "gourd" yellow! It was so fun to
sand, paint, and antique it up!

Our Cemetery

Our favorite bench where we love to read books, watch for deer,
and look at the beautiful fall leaves.
The view from the cemetery is amazing! It seems more like a large park!



We literally just have to walk through a small forest and shazaam,
there is the cemetery right next to our house!
