Happy Birthday Dad!!!!

Tomorrow is my dad's b.day.  I decided to actually get a birthday shout out done on time, so I thought a day early was good!:)  I just love my dad he is such a great guy and I am so happy that he is my dad.  Here are a few pictures of my dad...........

Here is a picture of all the boys in the family.  I think that my dad first off was so happy to have his boy (little mikey) and then I don't think he minds when his girls get married and boys start entering the family.  We know that he loves us girls, but we also know that he loves his "boys":)  
Here we are at Grand Targhee.  My dad loves the Tetons.  He is an awesome skier!  We LOVE to ski with him.  It is such a blast.  I remember going to Targhee with our neighbors as a kid and you knew where my dad was on the hill because he would be hooting and laughing all the way down the hill.  What a blast.  As a kid we would go and stay up at Targhee for about 4 days.  it was awesome because we would be there as early as we could wake up.  Well, with my dad, you were the first one on the hill and the last one off of it in the afternoon!!!:)  Targhee gets really cold, I mean really, really cold.  The other families we were with were in the lodge nice and warm by the fire, but we were out with my dad still skiing because my dad does not feel the cold!:)  It was a blast even though it was so cold.  We have such great memories skiing with my dad and we hope many more are yet to come!!!!
I had to put this picture in.  My dad is a picture crazy person.  He is always taking pictures, something I have taken after him.  It is sometimes hard to get my dad in the pictures because he is always taking them, so as you can see we had to take one of him taking on of us to get him in:):).
Here a picture of my mom and dad.  I also wanted to wish them a happy anniversary!!  I love them both so much and think that they are such a great example of a strong and happy marriage!!  Thank you!  Well dad.... happy b.day.  I love you so much and look forward to you coming down in 2 days.  We will party when you get here.  I hope that you have a great and happy year.  I love and respect you and am soooooo happy you are my dad!!!!
