Nauvoo

At the end of July, we had a fun little weekend away in Nauvoo, IL.  Even with the heat, and Ben being crazy with no nap, getting lots of bug bites, and Sariah majorly scrapping her knees, we still had a lot of fun!

I think the kids liked the play area the best!  It also provided the cutest pictures!

Sariah loved the little log cabins.  And informed me that it was Snow White’s house.

Ben had to join Sariah in the tea party fun!

We had a great dinner by the camp fire.  Although, we weren’t tough enough to actually camp- we opted for a hotel.  Some of our friends camped and it was fun to have a taste of it for dinner.

Ben and Sariah both crashed after the pageant.  Well Ben crashed during the pageant.  So we laid them together in the hotel bed.  It was quite possibly the cutest moment of the trip for me.  That was until in the middle of the night Ben rolled off the bed and started crying.  Which woke Sariah up and she decided she wanted to go home.  So James slept with Ben and I snuggled with Sariah for the rest of the night.

That picture of the two kids together sleeping is priceless though I'm pretty sure it's photoshopped ;)
