Remembering

Today we're REMEMBERING.

First, Happy Birthday to a special man in our lives. Pa! And here is a little poem to tell him we love him and some favorite things about him:

Happy Happy Birthday, to the one and only Pa!
All that we love about you, just leaves us in awe,

Thanks for being born, on this day so long ago,
And for convincing Nan to make you her beau,

Thinking back on all your ketchup sandwich meals,
Must make you grateful for work and banking deals.

Teaching Ben to golf, with you his first birdie,
The way you work with wood, you still must be thirty.

Watch out Brigham City, Pa’s working in his yard,
He’s got to get it right, to win this year’s award.

With a glass of lemonade and finger bunny ears,
The jokes you tell will bring us joy for many, many years.

To the hole in Eve’s leaf skirt, all the way to Timbuktu,
Thanks for being you Pa, just know we sure love you!
(Picture taken after my first time through the temple).

And my good buddy Kelly (Vause) Gerritsen! Happy Birthday friend! Love ya lots!

And last but not least, we're remembering 9/11.
God Bless America!
