Log Home and Sacred Grove
This is just a cute shot of the kids eating popsicles on the back porch.Tuesday evening we went to the Log Home and the Sacred Grove. We went after hours so we were able to be taught by my dad. This is the main room on the bottom floor in the log home. We talked down here and then went upstairs. The upstairs is a sacred place. This log home is reconstructed, but it is the very same air space that the original log home was built. Upstairs is the room where Angel Moroni appeared to Joseph Smith as a boy-it is the very air space that he appeared.
This is Ashton listening to grandpa tell the story of Angel Moroni coming to Joseph Smith. We all felt the Spirit and then bore our testimonies. It was a unique experience that I will never forget.
This is my mom bearing her testimony. These are moments that will not be forgotten.


By the time we finished in the log cabin it had gotten dark. We walked through the Sacred Grove anyway, even though it was dark. It was still peaceful.

Ellie couldn't get enough of grandma and loved being with her!
