The second day of our trip home it was H's 1st birthday. We celebrated by visiting Nauvoo IL. Here is H on her birthday. We also celebrated by getting some yummy homemade custard!
Here is the beautiful Nauvoo Temple.
This is the home of Lucy Mack Smith. Mother of Joseph Smith. We only made it in one of the homes because a certain child of mine couldn't keep his hands off of everything :)
We did go to the brick yard. They should us how the bricks were made and gave everyone a small brick that says Nauvoo to take home.
By the third day of travel everyone was getting very tired. Here is K in her "zone". E took this picture for me.
We made it to Indianapolis to stay with my sister. After replacing the brakes on our van in the morning we made it there by 6pm. We had a big birthday party for all the birthdays in August (there were 4 there that had birthday's within a week). We were able to see my brother Bret and his family while we were there. It had been a while since we had seen them.
We were able to spend a little bit of time outside and E came in with this beautiful crown of Queen Anne's lace.
We finally pulled up to our house on the 15. One day shy of a month being gone. We had so much fun on our vacation, but we are so glad to be home!

Sounds a lot like our summer. Glad you had a good time.
I'm not sure about you guys, but we will never own another Chevrolet again!!
What a fun trip! I bet your kids loved playing with their cousins. The pics in Utah made me a little homesick. I love Thanksgiving Point and of course Logan and Bear Lake!
How fun!!!! What great memories! We can't wait until you're here (or at least closer) all the time!
