I love this kid and I can't wait until her mom has her brother. I love it more when she screams my name on the phone and wants to talk to me. Ahh gotta love 2 year olds. She also really likes Jesse's doctors set that he got for Christmas. She especially loved the glasses.

Rest of our trip
Palmyra, New York
We are on top of the Hill Cumorah which was our first stop in Palmyra. We had a nice tour of the visitors center and then we walked up to the top of Hill Cumorah. It was nice cold hike but felt good after we had been in the car for awhile. Its interesting that the hill is not very big and doesn't stick out like you would think. Its just another little hill in the area
This is a replica of the Smith Log home in Palmyra. Its amazing how small and simple the homes were back then.
Us freezing in the Sacred Grove. I was so cold I practically ran through the grove. Its sad that it was so cold because it is one of the most sacred spots. The grove was a lot different than what I was expecting. Maybe because I always see pictures of it when its green.
When we drove through Palmyra we saw this building and it made us laugh. We are wondering what happened to the rest of it because it looks so awkward all by its self on the corner.
On our first day in Connecticut it snowed and we went in the backyard and had a snowball fight. It was a lot of fun especially because we got to go into a nice warm house when we were done. Andy and Davin. Davin has some new snow gear to get ready for Sweeden
Jesse throwing snowballs. I'm sure this one was headed toward Megan
Davin learning to throw or trying to throw a snowball I'm not sure which one
Poor Megan got the worst of the snowball fight. She is a good sport especially when Jesse picks on her
All the food for New Years Eve. There was so much and it was soo good

Alec is such a cutie and he is always smiling

We did a lot of this: (movie watching)
and this: (baby watching)
One of the few old wooden covered bridges in Connecticut. It dates back to the 1800's

Megan in her cool new beanie.
Megan didn't have the best shoes to walk in the snow or on the ice so Jesse carried her for part of the walk.
Jess and I
Andy and Jen
I'm sad this picture is blurry because I love it and think its super funny. Great faces on both of them
We went to NY city and FROZE! I took 3 pictures there and this is one of them I took in Central Park. We are not big fans of the city but it was cool to have gone.
Thank you George Family for letting us come crash at your house. We had a great time and we are so grateful for your hospitality. Pearson Family it was also great to see you guys. Thanks for flying out to have a cold snowy couple of days. It was great to be with Family. Can't wait to see you next month!

Christmas and First part of our trip
We spent Christmas Eve with the Johnson Family. Jill's sister was also there she is the one in black. We hang out with the Johnson's all the time at least once a week. Chloe is also our favorite and I think she likes us too seeing how she loves to come to our house and can say both of our names.
We made gingerbread houses. Jill and I worked on this one with a little help from Adrienne. Jesse made a sweet cow but I don't know where that picture went but I will find it later.
And I guess a picture of the 2 of us would only be appropriate. Not sure what is going on with Jesse's smile but this was the best out of 5 pictures.
You can tell what we both wanted, we got each other DVD players. Now we just need an updated TV. Hmm maybe that will come one day.
Don't mind Jesse but I really wanted a picture of the tree Jesse went and chopped down for our Chirstmas tree. It is a very special tree to say the least. At least we got lights on it.
Our first stop was Cleveland. We went to a science museum and wanted to go on this ship but it was closed for the season. So Jesse gets his picture with it instead. Behind him is Lake Erie. We then drove around parts of his old mission which was fun seeing where he served.
I think i was the most excited to see the Newel K Whitney store and Jesse probably thought he married a little kid. I'm not sure why I was so excited to see it. I guess because i have read about it and heard about it so much in church that was just really exciting to be there in person. The coolest part is its 75% of the original building.
Took a trip of the Kirtland Temple. Its amazing how many different hands this building went through and is still in good shape
The John Johnson farm was our favorite. The spirit there is so strong and its just amazing to think of and learn about all the church history that happened there. Below we are standing on the same steps that Joseph Smith stood on to preach. Oh and I am wearing my really sweet jacket that Jesse found at Marshalls. Its a Marmott and I LOVE it. I have worn it pretty much every day on our trip.
We saw the falls American Falls at night. Maybe next time we will have our passports and can go on the Canadian side. Its still pretty from the US side.
We went on the Cave of the Winds tour. You take an elevator to the bottom of the American falls. During the summer they build boardwalk type things so you can walk out farther but its a little dangerous with the snow/ice so they take them down. We stayed pretty dry where we were and it was still cool to be down at the bottom of the falls
We went out to the view point and froze our butts off. The wind was so strong. We ran out took a picture and ran back to get out of the wind.
I will post more pictures later we are in Palmyra now and its cold. I haven't taken too many pictures because my fingers freeze when they are not in gloves. Tomorrow is on to Connecticut to see the Pearson Family!

More Pictures
Last Saturday I froze my butt off along with these fine two people to take their engagement pictures. It seems every time I have pictures to take its the coldest day of the week. Taking engagement pictures are fun because the couples are always so silly. Thanks Kati and Blake!
Later Saturday afternoon I went over to my bosses house and took his family picture. It was a challenge 1 because they wanted it indoors(I don't blame them because it was cold) and 2 because those kids were hyper. I think they turned out okay not my best or favorite but hey i took them indoors and almost everyone is looking at the camera. I was so worried about having the 2 older kids look at me I guess I skipped the baby. By the way that baby is super cute.
