Visiting the Stettlers in Peoria Illinois....

Today we went to Nauvoo to visit the church sites (really-there's not much else to do there)

Crossing over the Mississippi River

We went to all the old shops- And Carson learned how to use a newspaper press

Then we learned how to make our own hemp ropes & got to keep it.  This is Emily chasing after Carson trying to get the end of the rope.....

 The Nauvoo temple is very beautiful! Hopefully I can go back when I have time to be there longer!
