Missouri and Illinois

I traveled to the Midwest when the T. family went to St. Louis for First Lego League. It was a world celebration of teams of youth who have been learning to build and program robots. After the celebration in St. Louis, we traveled nearby to learn about American history. Can you find Missouri and Illinois on the U.S. map?
Under the famous St. Louis arch with A. and M! St. Louis is a fun city with LOTS to do. We all had a great time!
Here I am with M. and her friend at the LDS Nauvoo Temple. It's right on the Mississippi River. I LOVED the red tulips!
I am with M., A., T. and their dad, S. at Abraham Lincoln's home in Springfield, Illinois. He was the 16th president of the United States during the Civil War. He helped keep the United States united. He is one of my favorite presidents!

Here I am at Ulysses S. Grant's farm home in St. Louis Missouri. He was the general for the Union army in the Civil War and later became the 18th president of the United States. Thanks to the T. family for a great trip learning about U.S. history!

Nampa, Idaho, USA

In August of 2010 I visited M's cousins in Nampa, Idaho. They took me to Silver City in the good old American West! I narrowly missed getting trampled by bulls. Thanks L. and M. for a great trip to a beautiful place!
