Seminary Trip to Carthage and Nauvoo

The end of March, James and I took my early morning Seminary class to Carthage and Nauvoo .  We studied the Doctrine and Covenants and Church History this year in Seminary.  Although pretty much all of my students have been to Carthage and Nauvoo a billion times, I couldn't pass up an awesome opportunity to go when we are only 2 hours north of Nauvoo.

These tulips and other flowers were at the visitors center in Carthage, they were gorgeous.

At Carthage- only 7 of the 12 early morning students, and one of my 3 homestudy students were able to go.
