Visitors Coming in for the Wedding

Kimberly arrived on May 20th about 8:30 pm. She brought Olivia over

 even though it was late just so we could enjoy her for a bit before she had to go to bed.

Tueday May 22nd Jane, Dave and randy flew in from Utah.

Jane and Dave stayed with us and we all got up early on Wednesday May 23rd

to travel to Nauvoo together for the sealinbg of John and Brittany.

When we arrived at our destination about 1 pm we checked into our room and
unpacked and rested a bit. Then we headed over to to the historical site to the family
living center. They have a display of some of the things the people did when they lived in
Nauvoo from 1839-1844. Then the Saints traveled west

 Candle making

 Rug weaving

Display on how they made flax into thread to make cloth 

Making a shawl

Pottery

Rope making 

 Barrel Making

Carpentry tool from that time period 

 After our visit to the Family Living Center we went back to the hotel and got ready 

                to go to the temple to do an endowment session with John and Brittany and her parents
                 and grandparent.  My sister gave them their wedding gift before we went to the temple.

 

The gift was a temple packet for each of them. They each had an envelop

embroidered with the Nauvoo temple on the front and their names and the date they were sealed.

 Appreciation exchanged

Then it was off to the Temple

After the temple session we all went out to dinner at the Hotel Nauvoo

 Julaine arrives early Thursday morning and we all get ready to go to the temple for the big event
