Sacred Grove

Well we just got back from our vacation to New York to visit my family, and we had a wonderful time! We got to see a lot of neat things. Todd and I didn't realize that we would drive right through Palmyra on our way there. We saw an exit for Hill Cumorah and decided to drive by. While we were there the sweet missionaries told us to go to the Sacred Grove if we had a chance. It was just down the road. So as soon as Ella "went potty in the Jesus store", we drove over to the temple and the Sacred Grove. It was such a wonderful experience. It happened to be Sunday, so we took some time to walk around and think about the amazing thing that had taken place right there. It really strengthened and reinforced my testimony in Jesus Christ and Joseph Smith. The Spirit was so strong and it was a beautiful day. What a wonderful unexpected addition to our vacation!
