IDLEWILD: This is an amusement park about 1 1/2 hours from the house. It was a little tricky with one parent and 4 kids, but it ended up being a great day. All of my pictures are on my phone though, so I will have to post later.
KIRTLAND:
I drove 2 1/2 hours to take the kids to Kirtland. We stopped at the Kirtland Temple first. While we were there they showed a video, and then took us on a 45 minute tour of the Temple. It was torture. The kids were tired, and William was making a scene. Sadie and Samuel kept asking when we could leave.
Kirtland has changed as much Nauvoo. Last time I went there was a small Visitors Center and the Newell K Whitney store. Now there's like 5 different sites. It took 2 hours. This time William was fine and the kids were engaged. I was so excited when each of the kids at different times leaned over and whispered "we learned about that in Nauvoo." I guess dragging the kids around the country by myself was paying off.
Don't worry...the car wasn't on, but he sure loved being a "big boy!"
We also went to the drive-in and saw Toy Story 3. Once again William was a pill, but the other kids loved it.
