Hortin's Come to Visit

We were very blessed to have some of our greatest friends come to visit us from Utah. They came and we toured the WHOLE state of NY. We went to Palmyra and saw the Sacred Grove and Hill Cumorah. Then it was onto an area tour of Ithaca, then off to New York City. Thanks so much to Pat for letting us crash at your apartment. We're sorry we missed Julie!! We had fun riding the subway, the bus, touring ground zero, the empire state building, the Natural History Museum, and the next day getting to the Statue of Liberty. I really enjoyed the statue of Liberty, and so did Evan. Everyone really did. Then, we came home, took a day off (Josh and I got to go see the new Star Trek movie. We highly recommend it!! We feel it is the best Star Trek movie ever made, and Josh even thinks it's better than Lord of the Rings. . . that's saying something). The last day, Saturday, we went up to Niagara Falls. It was a lot of fun and, next to the movie :), the highlight for Josh!! We all really loved it and really, really had a great time!! Thanks Brian and Ariel for choosing to spend your vacation with us!! We love and miss you!

We are lucky to live in this area. We get to show my parents around at the end of July, and I CAN'T WAIT. My Father will absolutely LOVE the sacred grove!

Here are the two slide shows of our trip with the Hortin's. It was really so much fun!
