Debbie's Birthday

Debra turned 31 on the 17th and we had tickets to go to the Draper Temple open house. We all loaded the buses to go up there and they had the walk way tented very nicely, especially nice for when it snows ! The temple was beautiful of course. But the tent didn't allow for any shots of the temple, so the only one I got was when we were back on the bus. Claire was excited to ride the "school bus"
We got back to the parking lot and we all had to change clothes, the girls got to sit in Matthew's car where it was warm and watch a movie while we all got ready.
We met up with Aunt Cheryl and Uncle George and went to Gardners Village and had lunch

We then went and did some shopping and the girls climbed in the sleigh which made for a nice picture.... although they weren't supposed to be in it as the sign we saw after we took this picture to not climb in the sleigh, oops!
I then was in the mood for brownies and ice cream so we decided to head back to moms house and make it at home, very delicious! It was a nice, fun, cold, long day. We're glad we were able to celebrate with Debra ALL day!
Happy Birthday!
