To Be A Child

I love Old Nauvoo

This was my third great grandfather's home.  Joseph Bates Noble built this home and then it became Lucy Mack Smith's home when he went west with the saints.

Here is the full view of his home.

This is inside the house.  I love the bed nook where Lucy would have stayed.

This is how close our accommodations were to the temple. Nice squinty picture.

We loved our accommodations.

I've got lots more pictures but I think I will save them for a scrapbook page and post it later.  It was a perfect day of sight seeing.  The next day it poured rain.  So we were really fortunate.

I absolutely LOVE this temple.  We got to do a temple session there and it was such a beautiful and wonderful experience.  I even ran into a dear sister from my mission that worked in the temple.  It was so fun to see someone I knew there.

Here We Come...

A week from today we get to visit Nauvoo!  I'm so excited.  I can hardly wait.  I served my mission out there but haven't been back since before the temple was built.

Nauvoo Temple here we come!

Weekend Project Part 2

I made this sign to go over Addie's bed.  I got the vinyl lettering from Stampin' Up.  Then I found an old frame I wasn't using anymore and painted it white.  I found the cute knob at Hobbie Lobby.

So this is how it looks.

I found these cute flowers at Hobbie Lobby for 50% off.  They ended up being only $4.50 for the set!  They match her curtains perfectly.  Oh, and her bed frame we had painted white a few weeks ago.  

These glittery flowers are so happy!  Now here room is all put together.
