Happy Birthday Jack!
You have been such a delight in our life! We were so excited to have a baby boy come into our lives after 3 girls. Mark was the assistant scoutmaster at the time and everyone at church was so excited for us too! So much that the scoutmaster's wife made you a scout uniform out of a cabbage patch pattern, complete with socks and hat.( I wish I could scan the picture so everyone could see how cute it was) When I think of you, I think fun, fun, fun and happy, happy happy! You loved the movie Bambi when you were around 18 months you would watch it and say"Bambi get up" when his Mom died. You loved Hop on Pop and you were really good at memorizing. When you were 3 you would recite a poem the girls were learning for Young Women's.
"What Counts"
It isn't the money you're making, it isn't
the clothes you wear,
And it isn't the skill of your good right
hand which makes folks really care.
It's the smile on your face and the light of
your eye.
And the burdens that you bear.
You really did have a great smile and a twinkle in your eye when you would say it too!
And now you have made us so proud with all you have accomplished.We wish happiness and craziness and send you our love. Hope you had a great birthday. Love You!

Happy Birthday Sydney!
Sunday night I told the kids I had a new game to play. It was a game my cousins from California (who I always thought were so cool) played when they came to Arizona in the summer. You take a saucer cup of flour and press it very tight in the cup, put a plate on top and turn it over. Tap the cup and slowly lift the cup and you have this flour molded like the cup. Next you put a nickel or dime on top of the flour cup. Take a butter knife and everyone takes turns slicing the the flour but you don't want the coin to fall, but when it does the person that it falls on has to pick up the coin with their mouth. You can't use your hands, so has you can see your face is covered in flour. The grandkids loved it! Of course I never wanted to make it fall so I wouldn't get flour all over me----well they thought that was the best part! They loved digging for the coin with their face buried in the flour. The 3 little ones didn't really play, but Landon and Carter wanted to get their faces dirty too! Of course Miss Kennedi just smiled and didn't want to get that pretty little face messy. Cheryl & Johnny do you remember playing this?
Happy Birthday to my sweet daughter! She is a wonderful mother, wife, sister and daughter and she deserves a little recognition. I'm so sad that my computer won't let me scan pictures and download new pictures. I have so many cute baby pictures of Bridget. She was the best baby I remember asking the Doctor if something was wrong because she slept so much and he patted my arm and said "Honey you just have a good baby". After having twins that were colicky I was scared to death to have any more kids so thank heavens she was soooo good. I do remember thinking how could anyone complain about just "one "baby. She is such a hard worker one time she stayed up almost all night helping while we put new tile in our kitchen she was about 10 years old. She always loves a project. She is a great cook ,she makes us laugh, we love her and always want to be around her! Hope you had a great birthday!
