Summer Nauvoo Activities

Our favorite place to go is to Nauvoo. Since it is only 2 hours away, we have had many opportunities to go and feel the Spirit of Nauvoo. A Spirit that time and the modern world will not erase. These are some pictures of the Nauvoo pageant, some of the Pioneer games the kids participated in before the pageant and walking on Temple grounds. WE love Nauvoo!!!!

The puppet show put on by a family during the pre- show at the Nauvoo pageant.

Sariah loved the sack races, she did them over and over and over again.

The beautiful Nauvoo Temple.

This is a view of the Mississippi river while driving from Carthage to Nauvoo. The river is slower here and many lilly pads grow.
