Rochester, NY

Tyler has been interviewing all over the country this past month and a half preparing to begin a medical residency in radiology this July. Grandma had come for a visit, so we were able to go on one of his interview trips together. Rochester, NY was a fun little city. It was very beautiful and covered in snow. It was only about 20 minutes from Palmyra where we were able to tour through Joseph Smith's childhood home and walk through the Sacred Grove. We also visited the Hill Cumorah which was only a few miles from the Smith farm.

It was a lot colder than we were used to in North Carolina, but Coleson was pretty happy with having a queen bed all to himself!

We came back to find that everyone had survived our absence, though Addellyn had rediscovered the art and joy of dumping food on her head and throwing it on the wall.

Makinzie took full advantage, playing double agent...helping Grandma to know the daily routine, all the while plotting with Addellyn on how to get into mischief, like sending the little one out from the bedroom undressed half an hour after they were put to bed.
