World's Best Dad

Happy Birthday!

My dad has always been the greatest. He has always been supportive of me and my sisters, no matter what. He has always put our needs and wants before his. People have always been amazed at some of the things that he has done to spend time with us or make sure we weren't "missing out" on the concert of the year, or the big game, or the coolest vacation spot, etc etc.

Years back he took us to the U2 concert because it was so the "it" thing to do, and we had a fantastic time. What other dad dances along to Rage Against the Machines just because? Just last year he took me to see Bon Jovi, and a month later took my sister to see Motley Crue. He took two of my sisters to Chicago last year so they could see Madonna (he opted to drop them off instead of going to that one...)

Growing up I always had the "cool" dad, and it sometimes bugged me when the boys wanted to hang out with him instead of me! It must have been a little tough to have all girls, though, so I'm glad we could provide him with some "sons" every once in a while!

My favorite thing about my dad is that he makes me laugh, and he sits and listens to my every effort to make myself laugh. After BYU beat Utah this year, I went to pick up my kids and he greeted me at the door with a big hug--and then he laughed at me. He truly is the best!

Happy Birthday Dad, we love you!
