The best birthday present ever

Just when I thought Neal could never surprise me, he did. He got a picture of the Nauvoo Temple for my birthday. I have been obsessed with this picture for the last year and have wanted it more than just about anything. The picture is quite expensive because not only is it beautifully framed, it has been aged. So although it is the modern temple, it looks like a picture of the temple from the 1840's. I have been crazy about Nauvoo since I was about 13 and am so thrilled to have this beautiful reminder in my home of the place I love. Neal worked very hard to get it for me so thank you hunny, for the best birthday present in the world!

Don't know much about the Nauvoo Temple (ofcourse), but the picture looks cool. I'm glad you enjoyed your birthday.
