Kirtland

We were able to go visit church sites in Kirtland, Ohio. It was such a neat place to see. Just like when we were in Nauvoo, we had really rainy, cool weather, but I'm so grateful that we were able to make the trip.







In the room of the school of the prophets, Harper was so sweet. The twins were very tired that day and they weren't so excited to reverently tour the sites. Ky had to take Porter out and I was nervously watching Kynnady and Harper so they didn't touch things they weren't supposed to. Harper carefully sat so quietly on a stool and listened to the missionaries tell us about the history. The sister missionary afterwards commented on what a sweet spirit little Harper had in that room as she listened to their words. She may have not understood their words, but everyone in the room was able to feel the Spirit.

a baby bottle- Kynnady guessed what this was. I had no idea

The Kirtland church history sites were beautiful. Afterwards we were able to go to the Kirtland temple. It was interesting to see. A beautiful building and we enjoyed learning some of the history, but misssed the peace and joy felt in a dedicated house of the Lord.
