Okay, I really should have posted in reverse order. What a dork.
Day 6
Mission: Wagon ride, Family Living, take a nap, visit Joseph Smith sites.
Mission accomplished.
Poor Will fell asleep when we sang "I am a Child of God." 
We went to the Family Living Center and learned how to make rope, candles, bread, rugs, pottery (actually no one wanted to go that one except me--I lost), barrels, and how to spin thread from flax and wool. It was so interesting one of my favorite parts of the trip.
Joseph Smith's Mansion House
Aubrey, RoseAnna, Becca in front of Josephs Smith's Red Brick Store. The Relief Society was organized on the top floor of the store. In this picture, Aubrey is holding a "casserole" as we exemplify the life of a Relief Society sister.
The hardest thing for the Saints to do was to leave their temple. It was hard for us to leave it too. I hope we can serve our mission in Old Nauvoo.
Day 7
Mission: Drive back to North Platte, NE without freaking out.
Mission almost accomplished
Day 8
Mission: Drive home without killing each other.
Mission totally accomplished.
Thanks Battys and Dokii. We had a great time.

I'm glad that RoseAnna commented on your blog. She is quite accurate. I am a little upset that you all didn't invite me to come and participate in the fun. You turn mongrels. Anyways, glad you had fun.
