Kirtland

Last week we got back from visiting my parents in Kirtland, OH. It was a lot of fun to see all the sites they have been serving on. Simon LOVED spending time with his grandma and grandpa. Thanks again Mom and Dad for showing us such a good time!





One of the days we visited the Amish country. Ryan found this awesome elephant mask in a little shop there.

We also took a couple days and drove out to Palmyra, NY.
The top of the Hill Cumorah.

On the Smith farm in front of the Sacred Grove.

On the way home we stopped by Niagara Falls and rode the Maid of the Mist. Simon hated the windy observation deck, but he loved wearing his poncho and getting soaked on the boat ride.




We also got to hang out with Tuck, Amy, and Jill while we were in the Cleveland area. We are going to miss getting to see them all the time. Simon and Jill were finally starting to notice each other.
