| On our way to Buffalo, NY where we will start an amazing trip combining a lot of the church history sites. Lillian and Polly got to sit with Brett Woolley who is great and visited with them almost the whole time. |
 |
| We were so happy that we go to go again this year. This is our 3rd year to help with the group, and we have also been able to go with each one of our kids. What an incredible experience to share with each of our kids. |
 |
| We also got to go with cousins, Daynen, Reaygan, and Hannah, with Polly, Lillian and Scott in front of the Palmarya temple. |
 |
| The walk back from the temple to the Palmyra Inn we got to walk by this really huge and Awesome church house. Scott loves it when the kids ask questions. |
 |
| At the Palmyra Inn. Hannah was in the shower. |

 |
| This is the Joseph Smith Log Home just in front of the Sacred Grove. |
 |
| I love the story of why there are no trees binding the view between the temple and the Sacred Grove. Pres. Hinckley was at the temple site and he said, "can we cut these trees, it would be really nice to be able to see he Sacred Grove from here?" He was told "no" and he said something like, "ok, well see what can be done" and those trees died. |
 |
| On the trail between the log home and the frame home. Lillian was in the other group. |

How wonderful all this looks. I wish I could have gone with you...or at least been a fly on the wall of the bus. What a faith-building experience, not only for all the kids, but for you and Scott.
