Great Green Getaway 2010 (AKA Nauvoo)

Casey and I were in charge of the Green get-together this year, so we made my whole family come out to the midwest :) We met in Nauvoo for 4 days and 3 nights of good times!

We were able to attend a session at the beautiful Nauvoo Temple!

We took a wagon ride around Old Nauvoo, and Cole got to pet the horses :)





Before the pageant we got to experience some pioneer activities: Music and Dancing, Log Sawing Contests, and Pulling Handcarts



The Pioneer Pastimes Park had a lot of fun activities: Stilt Walking, Ring Toss, Pioneer Toys, and Pioneer Dress-ups. Yes, that is Cole dressed up with all the girls :)






We went to Carthage Jail:




We got to take an oxen ride, and Cole even pet the oxen!


We saw the 70's Hall (where we had the meeting before my baptism), and where I was baptized (The Mississippi River where the saints crossed to go west)


It was a fun-filled vacation. Thanks for coming fam!
