New York Trip

In July the girls & I took a little trip over to New York to visit our friends Angie & Marshall Gwynn, he actually just started his residency program there! We had an awesome time, there house is prime location with a beautiful lake across the road, out in the country, no neighbors, it was heaven!
Kylan helped Marshall, we so she thinks, catch a wild rabbit and put it in this cage, she was obsessed! When we left she cried because she was worried it would miss her, unfortunately it got scared to death, literally.

We went to a really neat Discovery Center that had lots of fun things for the girls to explore, it was even fun for me!


It amazes me everytime the girls do something that they've seen me do over and over but I never realize they know how to do it, i.e. grocery shopping!

Outside the center there were all these cute little cottages/houses just kiddie size, they even had Goldilocks & the 3 bears cabin, very clever

We headed over to Palmyra on Friday and saw the sites and the Hill Cumorah pageant that night, unfortunately my camera isn't the best at night pictures but this was my favorite part, when Christ came to visit the people in the Americas, it was amazing how they portrayed it. Unfortunately alot of my time was spent wrestling with the kids but it was still a very neat experience. Thanks Angie!

McArthurs happened to be there the same night as well which was nice cuz it gave the girls something to do while waiting for the pageant to start! Lately the girls are obsessed with babies, McKartny mauled Jerzi the whole night.

In the Sacred Grove, all I have to say is AMAZING!

Again The Sacred Grove, and behind us is what remains of a rock fence that is believed to have been there since the Smiths!
