The first thing we did was go to the St. Louis Art Museum. I found a picture of it on the internet. When we went it was full of snow! You can't tell that well from this picture, but there is a relatively good hill from the museum down to these fountains. The city had build two fires at the top and had a good stack of firewood and the children (since it was a snow day) were all out sledding down this hill! We thought that was an awesome idea and very nice of St. Louis to do.
On Saturday we went through a session at the St. Louis temple, where we were married.
On Friday night we ate at one of my favorite restaurants - The Cheesecake Factory. I even ordered the 30th Anniversary Cheesecake since I thought the title was fitting for the occasion. Yum..... :-)I had a perfect birthday thanks to my wonderful husband!
On another note, Matt and I decided to let the deal fall through on that house we posted about. The seller wouldn't drop his price, wouldn't fix anything, and was pretty much hard to work with. After some pondering Matt and I felt strongly we should not buy it even though it seemed like an okay house. So we are house hunting again which is okay because we are not in a hurry to buy and looking at houses is fun, well, sometimes fun.

Happy Birthday! I am very impressed that Matt arranged a weekend away, sounds like tons of fun!
Way to go Matt! It sounds like you had a great birthday celebration weekend Dena!!!
What an awesome husband! So glad you had a good birthday!
I'm glad you had a fun birthday! I don't think I have ever had a surprise weekend away - sounds fun :) Too bad about the house - in this market though, you will hopefully find something even better - with a seller willing to drop the price. Good luck!
Sounds like a great birthday trip! Good going, Matt! Happy Birthday to you, Dena!
