Sunday Evening Wagon Ride

We finished up our family vacation in St. George by stopping at Dusty and Diane's house on the way home to give them the video I had put together of our horse ride. Dusty had just helped with a youth conference over the weekend and was so sweet to hook up his mules and take us on a ride around Meadow. It was so beautiful! Matt even got to hold the lines.









This is a picture of Dusty as he is telling the kids a story about a guy that was helping build the Nauvoo Temple. He had a team of mules that always obeyed his commands. The prophet asked him why he didn't use a whip and he said he didn't need one because they do what I tell them to do. The prophet told him to go and get a whip. He did what the prophet asked and the very next day something spooked the mules and if he wouldn't have had the whip he wouldn't have been able to get them under control. Dusty told the kids that that is a lesson in obeying the prophet and doing what we are asked.






Me and Haddy had the back seat.
