So just a random side bit, before I get into this post. When I was younger, I absolutely hated road trips. I liked traveling, just not the getting there part. Why you may ask? I am one of those cursed people who has extreme motion sickness. Not so much now (just never ask me to go on the Teacup ride at Disneyland), but when I was younger, I could guarantee you a barf session on every road trip. No joke.
Now I actually really enjoy road trips because I am not sick and Mike and I sit and chat about everything in the book. We even have the atlas game we play every road trip. So we took another road trip to see our newest little niece Ivy. She is beautiful! Look at that hair!
This is Ivy in her blessing dress. What a perfect angel!
Kira was very soft with her. Do you think she's ready for a siblet?
We also stopped by Nauvoo on our way. We loved it. There is such a special feeling there. Kira loved the statues. She kept wanting them to pick her up. She smiled and talked to them.
The tulips in the gardens were so gorgeous!!!! I tried to get Kira to sit on the bench. She wasn't havin' any of it.
Kira was obsessed with this little wooden sheep. It was just her size. Then she started trying to eat the wool. Yes, she is still obsessed with hair. Whoever met a kid that loves to eat hair?
Okay, I just thought they looked so adorable! Melt my heart.
Mike was showing Kira how to smell the flowers. Well, she thought he kissed them. So she ended up kissing all the tulips.
We also caught a tour at Carthage. It was so great to go again. It is also such a special place.
He did it!!!! He graduated for the first time since high school!!!
