Bethany Jex came to visit me right before Easter, we had not seen each other for over a year and that is just not exceptionable. She came all the way out to little Nauvoo to see me, one thing I always did for Bethany was draw up a game plan in high school. So I drew here up a Nauvoo fun game plan... kinda hard because there is really nothing here (hahah), but I think I did a pretty good job. ( its kind of hard to follow, but if you can good job :) )
Jonny and I took Bethany to the Casino in Burlington, for a nice dinner and we might have done a few dollars on the slots... at one point I was up $15 and Bethany was telling me, "cash it out, cash it OUT" but I did not listen and I lost it all. I don't think I'm much of a gambler. ( but I did get some cute earrings out of it)
After our gambling night, we decided it would be good to go to church and see the temple. Before church Jonny had a meeting so Beth and I just walked around the temple grounds catching up. I miss this woman she is the best. The wind was really strong that day and it was a little over cast but it was so much fun walking around and enjoying the beauty. We wanted to go do a session, but the temple was closed that week for cleaning. :( maybe next time Beth :P
While we were doing all of our adventures, we had several people ask us if we were sisters. we may as well be so we just say yes :). We went to the visitor center, and old Nauvoo flats it was a lot of fun, we even went on a carriage ride. It was kind of a colder day, but that was good because there were less people out and about. It was fun but there is only so much history you can take in a day.
after our long day of out and about we dropped by the Fudge Factory to get some delicious treats. you cant come to Nauvoo and not go here, its like that only good place besides the temple :).
That night we all went out for a little game of Put-Put. It has to be the hardest courses I have ever played, but it was 18 holes of fun. The loser had to buy ice cream and we where both glad that unfortunate Jonny was the loser. It was so fun, we also did the batting cages and just enjoyed the night. I'm so grateful for such a great girl friend, I wish her husband could of come down. Next time we will have to go visit them. It was sad to take her to the airport and say goodbye but we will have to go on that cruise we were talking about soon. :)
