#36

Tim's Birthday was not the typical day this year. We spent a good portion of the day in the Hospital with Emmie & family. We got to go to the Temple and do a session with Carrie & Mason. (thanks to Aunt Brittany)  Before we had such a pressing reason to go to the Temple, I had asked Tim what he wanted to do on his Birthday and he had already said that he wanted the two of us to go so it was already in the works. It was convenient to jump on the freeway from Cardon's Childrens Hospital & go straight to the Temple. We prayed for peace & enlightenment. We had a Family Fast that day on Tim's Birthday for sweet Emmie & broke our fast together as we met afterwards at a yum Mexican Restaurant to eat. 

Later that evening we arrived home & as we drove up saw this sign on our door. 

Thanks to our daughter, Tim experienced some Birthday decor & fun {when I wasn't quite in the balloon-singing mood.} She wrapped his gifts and everything. Luckily I had a cake out in the freezer I had bought a few days earlier. Notice we didn't even take it out of the box.
