Our family went to Nauvoo. Nauvoo is only four and a half hours from our home. It was such a spiritual experience. We got to see the pageant, tour Joseph Smith's home, and see many other sights. The pageant was about Joseph Smith and the saints coming to Nauvoo. Our testimonies grew and we left on an extreme spiritual high. We loved it!
Carthage jail was so humbling. The bullet hole is still in the door where Joseph was shot.
This is Joseph Smith's first home and his burial sight. Many members of Joseph's family are also buried here.
There are so many fun things to do there. Seeing the oxen and going on the ride was one of them.The Nauvoo temple was lit up at the end of the pageant. It was beautiful!
