Where the first copies of the Book of Mormon was printed and published.


Alvin Smiths grave ( Joseph Smiths brother)


The Peter Whitmer Farm


A home where the first Book of Mormon was handed out and where the first meetings were held when the church was first organized. Also where Brigham Young first bore his Testimony. This is not an official church site,we were lucky enough to have a member of the seventy take us on a tour of this home which he had previously owned at one time. He hopes that one day the church will buy this home.

The Hill Cummorah.

My awesome friend Sarah and I . It was so nice of her and her family to invite us along on this once in a lifetime trip!

The Sacred Grove, what else can I say but Spiritual I will never forget that place!

The Palmyra Temple, Beautiful!

Now we are in New York City for the second half of our trip. The Wax Museum where Warren was getting frisky with Jennifer Lopez!

Wicked was my favorite part of the second leg of our trip. I can't wait to see it again!

The Manhattan Temple, very unique but fit right into the City!

We had brunch at the well-known Tavern on the Green in Central Park.

The Empire State Building.

This day we not only saw the Statue of Liberty but we also saw Ellis Island and the site of the Twin Towers.

Here we are on the last day of our trip in our Hotel overlooking time square. It was so great to spend this time with my husband, we will never forget it. Thank you to you all who watched our children we really appreciated it!

Awesome photos. I have many of the same shots of the church historical sites from 20+ years ago when I served my mission there. Warren's uncle Mike also served there about a year or two before I did.
