Nauvoo slide show

After Lindsey's awesome Breaking Dawn slide show I was inspired to make a slide show of Nauvoo. It is kind of long, but I thought it was a great way to remember my trip that was so amazing! I am so grateful that I could spend two weeks in Nauvoo and feel the wonderful Spirit that is there. I have also been reading the Work and the Glory and I can't believe the many trials and difficult times the pioneers had to live through. Just everyday tasks like washing the clothes, making dinner and getting water took so much time and effort. I am grateful for the modern day conveniences we have and especially for air conditioning and light clothing! How did the pioneer women survive in so many layers and those long dresses. I did a previous post about Nauvoo and so you will see some repeat pictures, but there are also a lot of new ones. If you take the time to watch it I hope you enjoy!

Holly, thanks for visiting with me last night. Your slide show was really beautiful. I've never been to Nauvoo. I'd love to go sometime.

Holly, Great slide show. I have watched it several times now. I does bring back some great memories and spiritual expericences during the week we were there. I just had 167 of your pictures made up in 4X6.
