Family Vacation

I'm back to the blogging world again and just getting around to posting our family trip back East in June. We spent a few weeks in New York seeing Jeff's family, touring the city then touring through New England to Boston, Concord etc.. then heading up north to church history sites and Rochester, finishing with Niagara Falls. It was a wonderful trip, good memory making trip and very nice weather, I think we missed the humidity- yeah!
We took advantage of family nights beforehand to learn more about church history, Joseph Smith and our country's history and leaders. Highly recommend HBO Films: John Adams -on dvd. It made the trip so much more memorable. Highlights were the Sacred Grove Taking Jacob's 8yr portraits and some of Elise's seniors, shopping in the city, Lion King, eating out in Scarsdale with Jeff and Julianne, playing with their kids, waffles, BBQ at Jeff's with Matt, Tracy and family who just relocated from Germany. Boston Freedom Trail (very exciting) Concord sites, and Five Guys.
