On February 2 Nauvoo had a big snowstorm that dropped 15-18" of snow with high winds. The historic sights all closed and there were no plays or meetings held for the next two days. This is how it looked after we got back from ElPaso - about a week after the snowstorm.
The school where many of the pageant activities are held.
Any of you who have come to Nauvoo and stayed at the condos, this was certainly a different sight from what you saw!

Glenn and I recently spent a long weekend in ElPaso with Kevin, Stefanie, Rylee and Sophie. We were hoping for some warm weather but instead we found freezing temps, broken water pipes in their home and flooded floors! Before we left the temps were warming and things were returning to normal at their house. In spite of all the excitement we had a great time!
We drove to the White Sands National Park which is in the Desert about 90 miles from El Paso. We could only drive partway into the park because the road was closed because of snow! We did get out and walk on a boardwalk and Kevin and Rylee had a snowball fight. At times it was hard to tell the sand from the snow!
Grandpa and Grandma ventured out for a walk with the girls once it started getting a bit warmer.
We even spent some time at the neighborhood park.
