McKinley is now 3 months old and really has a great personality! She loves to smile and she's starting to laugh which is so cute. We love having her in our family.
We took a trip up to New Hampshire and Maine (we also were in Vermont and Massachusetts) for a couple of Kris' interviews. We went to Sharon, VT to the birthplace of Joseph Smith. It was a beautiful and peaceful place. We definitely felt the spirit while the missionary shared the story of the place and of Joseph Smith's life. This monument was built in 1905 so they had to move all this granite with oxen and horse power. This stuff is heavy and it took lots of smarts to know how to get all of these pieces to the place. Pretty amazing.
In Maine the kids and I went to a lighthouse. Denzil tells me frequently what a lighthouse does. He was more interested in picking berries and rocks and such but we had a good time.
Then we went to a narrow gauge train museum. I guess that a standard railroad track is 4 ft 8.5 in across so anything less than that is a narrow gauge. Well, this one was 2 feet and the only place in the US that used them. They were used to connect the rural areas to the big railroad.
Then we did Halloween at our friends house just outside of Boston. We didn't get there until kind of late so we just went to a few houses but Denzil was more than happy with what he came away with.
This last picture is of him wearing the cabbage patch kid clothes. He was determined to get them on so I let him. I couldn't resist taking a picture though!
