Visits from the family

Over Easter weekend my family came to visit.  My parents, my sister and my brother-in-law.  It was tons of fun.  We went to the zoo, and saw some crazy Gorillas, I think that was the best part of the zoo.  We had to keep telling Nathanael that the zoo was very large and he couldn't be disappointed if we weren't able to to see everything at the zoo.  We did pretty well, saw almost everything, except the Rhinos.  We went to the Kainesville Tabernacle and Winter Quarters.  I love the statue that they have inside of the Winter Quarters/Mormon cemetery.  It's a statue of a father and mother burying their small baby in a grave, knowing that as soon as they left their shallow grave that wolves were going to dig that grave up.  I makes you truly thankful for the perfect faith that our pioneers had. Of course in true family style we played tons of games, mostly just bang.  It's our new favorite thanks to Zac.  It's like a Western mafia game.  It was a good weekend, with good food and great family!  Thanks for the visit, I hope more are to come.
