Church sites

Of course we had to include a visit to the church sites while we were so close. First, we went to the Hill Cumorah. Jacob was asleep, and we were all tired so we enjoyed watching the new Joseph Smith movie. The end was sad (when Joseph and Hyram were killed). Adam was particularly sad when he learned that Hyram was his great-great-great-great-grandfather.

Adam rolled down the hill--this is Jacob's version of rolling down the hill.

Adam at the entrance to the Sacred Grove. He was still pretty sad. They've expanded this A LOT, and I think we took a 3 mile circuit! The boys were fine, hanging out in the stroller, though.

We saw the Joseph Smith cabin, where the Angel Moroni visited Joseph Smith. It was interesting to see that he slept in a room with 5 other boys at that time.
