HAVE A WONDERFUL BIRTHDAY!

Christmas Lights at Mesa's Temple. It was so awesome. They do such a great job. It was pretty close to Salt Lake City Temple lights. Carter and Addison loved every minute of it. They also have concerts going on every night. We went for family home evening and that night they had a community college singing. They did such a great job, even the kids liked to hear the singing. We were there for about and 1 1/2.

Sorry about the pictures. Most of the time the kids were to busy watching the lights and did not want to look for pictures. Hey, that's what makes the real memories is when you can look back and say "I remember that time."

I loved this little palm tree so much. I thought it was so cute, so I had the kids kneel underneath.

You can't see the reflecting pond that great, but Carter wanted a picture with it because it had some little waterfalls in it.
