it was my dad's birthday last saturday! this post is wayyyyy late. here is my birthday post to him, here are 10 things about my dad that i love!

1-he loves his riding lawn mower as though they were a sportscar. to him they are sportscars. what you ask 'they' yes, he has two. an orange one, and a red one. he can ride whichever one he feel like if he is having a red day, or an orange day. take your pick!

2-at the young age of 64 he can ride his old honda trail 90 motorbike standing up! i can imagine him now, in his sunglasses, dry cleaned t-shirt, and athletic pants. an awesome trick that i think none of his son-in-laws could pull off. (yes, he does get his t-shirts dry cleaned.)

3-he is hilarious, has the funniest sense of humor. he has many many friends due to his fun personality.

4-he also is quite the 'passionate' man to say the least.

5- he loves his family dearly. always getting teary eyed when talking about them, or during family prayers.

6-he used to be a drummer. and got a scholarship to utah state university for it.

7-his terms of endearment for me that make my friends and old coworkers laugh...dammit dani! my hell danielle!

8-he uses phrases like...that's no business. and my personal favorite.... who taught you to say that, i never said that!

9-he is an amazing cook.

10-he is a hard worker and works hard at his job, yard, and family.

11-he had an old volkswagen bug he bought at strong volkswagen in slc. that what light blue, and amazing...and i wish he never sold it.

12-i think he secretly believes in bigfoot, and i think that when i would make him come downstairs to kill spiders late at night, and he would get mad, i think deep down was afraid of those large spiders.

13-he loves police scanners; and he can watch old cowboy shows better then mike tv, on the willa wonka show.

i love you dad! happy birthday!
