Happy Birthday Grandma

Thanks for another birthday!  Celebrating your birthday gives us all the more reason to:

. . .Travel to Wyoming towatch your grandkids open your present to discover that it was a game for the "Maybe" 

. . .Go out to lunch and pay for your own Fried Ice Cream that came despite your anxiousness to leave without a sumbrero or birthday cheers!

. . .Get Parker a new toy that he can punch like a punching bag with you in the middle of it

. . . Grandkids cook for you!  (KFC "Grilled" style)

Whatever the reasons, keep having birthdays!  We love you.  You are the best.

Happy Late B-day!

I've been wanting to post about Britt, but I haven't had the B-day pictures I wanted.  Now I have them.  Britt is the best sis in the whole world.  I love her so much and am so grateful we fell into the same family.  Even though she is six years younger she is my best friend!  She is amazing in all aspects.  I look up to her, of course physically, but even more than that as a wonderful example.  She's always been fun, stylish, and one crazy girl.  She has taught me in so many ways.  

Thanks Britt for being my sis, friend, and now Parker's amazing aunt!

Happy B-lated B-day Crazy Cousin Carter!

Cousin Carter has now made it to the big 3!

Some fun moments we remember with the big Carter man!

* Riding Cali's bike in his diaper on her birthday

* "Show me your muscles" while watching him almost pass out

* Watching his favorite movies over, and over, and over, and over, . . .

* Seeing him watching over his new cousin "Parkerthebaby"

* Trying to be  6 in a 3 year old body

We love you "Carterthecousin" and look forward to many more memories

Happy Birthday CHASE!

Happy Birthday Chase!  Our nephew  Chase turned the big 7 today!  I was on my mission when Chase was born but still have some wonderful memories that we enjoy. I remember some miniature golfing, watching him round the bases, and hearing stories of his humility on the soccer field.  I especially have fond memories of snipe hunting!  Parker can't wait to get to know his cousin!

"Mighty Max" turns ONE

Happy Birthday Max!  Parker's cousin turned 1 today!  Parker is excited to get to know his cousin!  Nate and Lindsay are great parents! Max is another example of this!  

Here are some other famous Max's!  I see a resemblance in Miracle Max's hair and birthday boy Max!

Happy Birthday Tan!

We just wanted to wish our nephew Tanner Happy Birthday!  He turned the big 7 and just wanted to thank him for all of the good times.  Memories that come to mind of the birthday boy:

• Tanner kissing "sleeping beauty"(Melissa) to wake her up
• Airplane flights 
• Catching home run balls at the Rockies game
• Watching Tanner motor around the bases in T-Ball & Baseball
• Hunting snipes at the cabin
• Him and Trey teaching my seminary classes
• Playing foosball with his head getting stuck
• Birthday's, family reunions, and get togethers

It's great having Tanner in the family and the joy he brings to all of us.  Happy Birthday!
