NAUVOO Illinois Temple: Jake and Kalie get hitched


On a beautiful July morning in Nauvoo, these two lovelies got hitched! The weather was in the low 80's which was very unexpected. Jess and I were the only ones in the Brad Bishop family to be able to attend. We reunited with Grandma and Grandpa Bishop, Aunt Heather and Ritch and Maria and Jeff and their children!  It was so much fun all rolled into 2 days


Here is video of the cute couple leaving the temple.





Wisconsin friends from the 1990's:  Kathy Shurilla and Jill Chausow


PEACE OUT!


This is my favorite picture of the event!


Jessica and I visited Nauvoo statue garden. Jess mostly enjoyed reading Goose Girl!





Jessica and I stayed an extra night to attend the Nauvoo British Pageant held in Nauvoo during the last weekends of July. It was a very entertaining production with music, dance, costumes and pageantry. The evening was lovely and the temperature was unseasonably pleasant for July 30.

We drove an hour to Hannibal, MO and stayed the night. We toured the historic town where Mark Twain spent his childhood and was inspired to write his classic stories of Huck Finn etc.




Jess and I visited this STRANGE antique shop in Hannibal. The shop was filled with life-size mannequins displaying costumes for purchase. Other items in the store were even more creepy and included baby dolls with faces very real looking.
