RACHELLE and MEGAN COME TO VISIT

 The girls braved the cold to visit Pioneer Courage Park in downtown Omaha.

Members of Louis and Clark's exploration party on the Missouri River,
discovering the land we got in the Louisiana Purchase.

 Wearing our cool 3-D glasses for the IMAX film at the Omaha Zoo.

 Megan, locating St.Petersburg, Russia on the rotating globe at the Omaha Zoo.
Soon she'll be serving as a missionary there, entrenched in the Russian culture 
and speaking the language like a native!
 
 Making friends with the Gorilla family at the Omaha Zoo.

 We enjoyed going on a session at the Winter Quarters Temple
Saturday morning, then taking a tour of the Mormon Trail Center.

 Out in front of the Mormon Trail Center...blue skies and sunshine, but very cold!

 Going on a tour of the Kanesville Tabernacle and Visitor Center,
learning all about the Mormon Battalion.

At the airport saying good-bye....what a fun four days we had with them!
Our apartment will seem VERY QUIET when we get back home!
