Happy Birthday

31 years ago today my mom was at Bear Lake dying Easter eggs with her Mom and sisters. When at 8 months pregnant her water broke. Now if any of you have been to Bear Lake you know there is no hospital with in 50 miles, so she was headed to Logan asap. I think my grandpa made it down the canyon in 30 minutes. When she got there it was determined that I was coming our the wrong way so they did a c -section. Out popped me, everyone was excited and said their congrats, then when they went to sew my mom back up they realized that there was another baby in there. To my moms surprise she was having twins. Now you might ask where was my Dad in all this mayhem, well he was on a trip in southern Utah with some friends. Now 31 years ago there was not cell phones so my other grandpa when to find him. This is the story that I look forward to hearing every time it is my birthday so I hope I told it right. I would like to tell my better half (Amy) that if I have to share this special day with someone I am glad it is her, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! aren't we the cutest things you have ever seen.Happy Birthday to me!!! Since Kevin is so busy I was able to go buy my own birthday present. So I finally got a table saw, a scroll saw, and a sander. So watch out Staci the crafty queen I am here to challenge you J/K.
Amy and Weston sent me these cute shirts so I am excited for it to warm up enough to wear them.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU AND AMY!!! I will be joining you at 31 in 4 days. That is the craziest story about you. I would die if I did not know I was having twins.I am impressed you even know what those tools are and how to use them. I would be scared to death to use one. But I will love to see what you make!!!!

First of all I thought you took my tools with you.That shows you how often I use my tools now and how often I look in the garage. Second I'm glad you got them because you make really cute gifts with them ;) Third did you think about moving them all the way back to Utah!
