Winter Quarters and Kanesville!

Jackie found these really YUMMY pretzels here in Omaha. Karston LOVED them so when she brought some for us he carried them around saying they were "MINE"!
The only temple with ALL stained glass windows! BEAUTIFUL!!!
The Cemetery at Winter Quarters aka Council Bluffs.
Tyson and Karston were buds. Tyson followed him around so we could do our looking! Thanks Tyson your the best!!!
The Memorial!
Some of the headstones that are still readable BARELY.
This statue is so tender and sad, but Beautifully done. It is a mom and dad looking over their child who they just buried. Notice the shovel in hand. I honestly don't know how they did what they had to do.
Headstone that read MOTHER.
The stained glass on the temple, and my tiny eternal family minus 1 :(



I love to look at the details on the temples. It always amazes me the things they come up with to make them so very beautiful, and different.
The Visitors Center at Winter Quarters.
We watched a movie and Jayden was REALLY into it so we had to grab a picture!
Kanesville where President Brigham Young was ordained to be a Prophet!


This wax figure of Brigham Young makes me laugh. His hair really didn't look like that.
The approximate place where he was Ordained.
I don't play the organ, but I did get to play this one. It was so fun. They neatest part is that it is over 250 years old and they let all 3 of us play! Jackie's picture for some reason wouldn't upload, but she played it too!



Karston got a sticker, and thought it was cool to put it right there and walk around with it like this for a long time!
It was lots of fun and very interesting. I didn't get to see a whole lot, because I was out with Jayden most of the time. He was having a hard day poor baby. Maybe one day I will get to go back and enjoy a little more! Thanks again Tyson and Jackie for being our tour guides and for spending the day with us! We sure love you both and miss you OODLES!!!
