Happy 7th Birthday Drew...We Love You!!


On March 6th Drew turned 7 years old. I can't believe she is one year from being baptized. She is growing up so fast. Drew had a fun day and Friday was a good day to have a Birthday. Drew was very excited because it was pajama day at school and her class earned a party for meeting their goals. She was glad to wear her new P.J.'s that she got for Christmas from Grandma and Grandpa Baker.

Later that day Drew's cousins Courtney, Ashley, and her Aunt Melanie came to Riverton to play. Melanie and I took the kids to the Draper Temple Open House later that afternoon. Our kids were so excited to go to the Temple and to actually go inside. They kept saying how beautiful it was and talked a lot about the baptismal font...Dane said he wanted to go for a swim! Drew thought the Sealing room was very pretty, and the Chandlers in Celestial room were awesome. I am so glad we took them so they could get a glimpse of what Heaven is like and how peaceful it is in the Temple. They kept telling us how they can't wait til they can be married in the Temple. They are definetly cute and innocent. Melanie and I and our husbands have our work cut out for us....for this to come to pass especially in these trying times ahead.

How wounderful that you guys got to do that. Troy and I did that as well, and it is amazing of the spirit that kids can feel. I loved being there with Troy and the kids, gives you sense of Heaven, and Eturnal Family.
