"They Say It's Your Birthday...."

In honor of Bryan's 33rd Birthday.....yes I said Birthday #33, I wanted to share 33 things I LOVE about Bryan:

1. He loves being a Dad.....and he's a darn good one. It absolutely melts my heart to see Bryan interact with Kate and realize how much he loves her. Kate is one lucky girl.

2. He thinks arguing is lame. Even when I try and pick a fight, he finds a way out of the argument.

3. He does the laundry......and he's good at it!

4. He is a hard worker. He always has some project he is working on.

5. He loves life and likes to have fun.

6. His family is his priority and nothing comes before that.

7. He can fix ANYTHING!!

8. He prefers to alter his own pants (he does better with the sewing machine than I ever could).

9. He's very PATIENT!!!

10. He's very complimenting (especially when he knows I need it).

11. His glass is always "Half-Full." He is always looking at the positive rather than the negative.

12. He comes from a great family, with great parents who raised him into the man he is today.

13. He loves treats (like me).

14. He doesn't like to waste time, especially watching TV or playing video games.

15. He is dependable. If he is ever asked to do something or be somewhere, he will be there.

16. He loves to snow ski and is an amazing skier.

17. He is a great listener. If I ever need to vent (even about something lame), he will just listen and let me get it off my chest.

18. He loves my family. He's always up for a trip down to Fillmore to visit my family.

19. He makes friends easily and is a true friend.

20. He honors his Priesthood authority.

21. He is so handy. I swear he fan fix ANYTHING!

22. He is conservative with money. If we can't afford it......he won't buy it.

23. He is always respectful.

24. He is infamous for putting his foot in his mouth, but somehow always seems to redeem himself.

25. He's very nice to look at :)

26. He's not easily influenced.

27. I love that his hands are always calloused, but his fingernails are always well groomed.

28. He gives amazing back rubs and usually doesn't complain (okay, he complains a little, but ends up giving in).

29. He will watch "chick-flicks" with me.

30. He has goals. He is always looking for ways to better himself.

31. He NEVER complains. If there is something he is not happy with, he will find a way to change it.

32. He makes me want to be a better person.


33. He has 100 more qualities that I love about him, but I'm sure he will be grateful that I stopped at 33.

I love the one about his calloused hands and groomed fingernails, that has always been one of the things I love about Mike, too. Just good to know those hands are working, you know? Happy Birthday!

And welcome home to Kate!
