We had some flirting going on. . . every youth conference has flirting! This is Travis and his friend Korrine Aldous.
The Pagent was TOTALLY worth the wait!
How awesome is the Book of Mormon!

You are an amazing example to all of us in so many ways!

The actual shop in which the first Book of Mormon was printed. This is a replica of the press that was used.
An authentic first edition Book of Mormon!!!
A short walk from the print shop led us to the grave site of Alvin Smith, Joseph's older brother who died from what they believe was a ruptured appendix.

Celebrating Independence Day.
We feel a deep gratitude in our hearts to live in a country in which we can freely express our love and belief in Heavenly Father and His son, Jesus Christ! We are thankful to the many individuals who have sacrificed so that we can live every day with this blessing in our lives.
