Almost Thanksgiving....

After visiting Palmyra, New York yesterday, we woke up early to drive to Vermont to see the Joseph Smith Birthplace, then on to New Hampshire to stay with Dad.

But our first stop before leaving Palmyra - going by the temple.

It was a chilly morning, but worth seeing.


The stain glass windows were nice!


From looking out of the temple windows on the side toward the Smith Farm, you would see a clearing in the trees so you would be able to see the Sacred Grove from the temple.
After driving for several hours... watching movies, playing hangman with Jake - we finally arrived at the Joseph Smith birthplace in Vermont.


It was really cold HERE too, but it was nice to see.



We stopped in the visitor's center to take a look around. The missionaries said that there weren't alot of visitor's today. So, they were pretty happy that someone stopped by.

Justice and Anni standing in front of the fireplace. The significance of the fireplace, is the stone in front of the fireplace is the same stones that were used in the house that Joseph Smith was born in.




What a long day..... Haha. :)

We stopped by Derry, New Hampshire to pick up our shirts and bibs for the 5k Turkey Trot tomorrow morning. Then we got to Dad's that evening.
