I decided to post blogs about once a week so I don’t wear you or me out! It’s been another great week. Besides our wonderful work in the temple we’ve done some other fun things. Monday I gave dad a day off from our adventures so he could take it easy. Tuesday we went to the Family History Center and learned some more things from Karen. (I know how to share names with anyone who would like to help save their ancestors 😇.) we went through the Wilford Woodruff house - the Bible, spectacles and rocking chairs are his. He only lived in it a few months. Wilford was a GREAT believer in temple work. He was baptized for 3,188 of his ancestors!
We also went to the brick yard and learned how they made the bricks for their homes. Wilford Woodruffs home took 14,000 bricks and he made many of them himself. And of course I got a souvenir brick.
Last we went to the Lucy Mack Smith home. It was built by another family but was given to her when the saints left Nauvoo. She was very old then and had lost her husband and 5 sons. She was faithful to the end and had sacrificed much in support of her family and her testimony.
