Mark had a week of vacation before Christmas so we made a quick trip to Nauvoo to spend some of the holiday with Grandma Judy. We had a fabulous time and packed a lot of our favorite things into a few short days!
Ha. Mark took this during our drive there. Some much needed sleep!
Holiday Puzzles
Getting ready to watch Grandma perform in "Rendezvous"
After the show Davey climbed up on this stool and just sat there. He didn't want to leave that stool!
Grandma Judy had figured out where our ancestors had owned land so we drove around and took pictures in as many spots as we could. The kids were troopers and it was cool to see more of Nauvoo then just the historic parts and think of what it would have all looked like back then. This plot was owned by William Huntington - who is the Father of Zina D. Hungtington Jacobs Young(me and Mark's common ancestor... ya we're cool like that. :)) Mark comes through the Jacob line (her first marriage) and I come through the Young line (her 2nd marriage).
Grandma Judy watched the kids while Mark and I did a session here.
I love to be in the temple.

We joined Grandma on her wagon tour. She's a great tour guide!
We made Christmas bread and delivered it to some of the missionaries at the sights and sang Christmas carols. One of my favorite traditions ever!
We also made almond roca, filmed our Keeler Christmas film, made it to Grandma's Christmas performance, and played on Helen's zip-line!

We wondered where the zip line came from. So fun to be there with Grandma Judy! So cool that she is now an actress!
