HAPPY BIRTHDAY POPS

These two L-O-V-E-L-Y people

would like to with this guy (the one with gray hair one not the kid with his mouth wide open) a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY.

Today is Pop's birthday. Pop's is a pretty cool guy if I do say so myself. He now may be old enough to get the senior citizen discount at Shopko, but he still acts like a kid. He wrestles the grandkids like a 20 year-old, yells at the refs like a 17-year old and causes mischief at girls camp or youth conference like a 13-year old.

Pops has always made family a priority and has taught me to do the same. Countless times would he leave his chores on the farm early to come to my softball, basketball and soccer games, knowing that he would have to work late into the night because of it.

Pops loves ice cream and sudoku contests with mom (I hope mom let you win on your birthday).

Aunts and Uncles don't stand a chance to play with the kids when pops is around. He is the favorite playmate.

He keeps his house at a cool 64 degrees and wonders why his sweatshirts disappear when the kids come to visit.

He has been a BYU football season ticket holder since 1981 (or was it 1980?) and often attends away games as well.

LOVE YOU POPS!

Enjoy your Maui caramacs, poster filled with candy (from Kace), Apples to Apples game and hopefully mom will get you that new ice cream maker you hinted about.

ps. Remember that one time when you told me about your new diet plan? One bowl of ice cream with your dinner instead of two!?! funny...
