Kirtland

One of the things we were able to do while my parents were in town was go to Kirtland, Ohio. On the way there we stopped at the Indian Sand Dunes. There's more to do than we expected, we will definitely be going back.

Bennett loved playing on the beach.

The hotel pool. Bennett was so excited to swim he ran...this is why you don't run.

Newel K. Whitney Storehouse. Several revelations happened here, notably the Word of Wisdom.

For lunch we ate at a cute little diner. The Kirtland Diner. Bennett didn't want to use his hands

The Kirtland Temple. You're not allowed to take pictures inside, but it's super pretty.

This is at the John Johnson home. This is the room where D&C 76 was revealed (3 degrees of glory).

The John Johnson home where Joseph Smith was tarred and feathered and lost one of the twins. Also the original front porch where Joseph often gave Sunday sermons.

I love living in the midwest. There are so many early church sights to see. It's fun to stand in places that people like Joseph Smith have been. We had a great time in Kirtland.
