Road Trip to Church Sites and Julia's dance recital

Julia and Halley during the recital.

Princess Julia Ballerina, posing before the recital. She loved her sparkly costume and having the spotlight. She was disappointed that there wasn't more of a routine, but was excited to dance.


Julia and Ethan in front of the Liberty Jail monument in Liberty, MO. They really enjoyed learning about Joseph Smith and some church history. We went to Adam-ondi-ahman, Liberty and Independence, MO. Ethan was really touched that the men were put in jail and had to suffer so much, Julia loved the Garden of Eden and just danced around the entire time we were there. We also went to Far West, there was a stray cat that had learned how to get hand-outs and the kids loved playing with her while we were there. We all wanted to take her home, but couldn't figure out to keep the cat in the car until we went home.

Julia and Ethan are loving the spring weather and especially the giant puddle there is to play in after it rains. It has rained a lot this past week and a half, so they are having a great time! :)
