Happy Birthday, Daddy-o!!


53 Years ago, this handsome man was born!

There are a lot of reasons why I think my dad is the greatest, but here are just a few...
  • He loves my mom
  • I am his FAVORITE child (Robyn and Michael there is no arguing about this...we know all know it's true)
  • He loves to share funny stories
  • He always drives fast!
  • He loves the Gospel
  • He serves others with compassion, kindness, and love
  • He loves to tease...oh, he is such a tease!
  • He plays with and adores his grandchildren
  • He always wears shoes...even indoors...this sometimes drives my mom crazy, but he can't stand not having shoes on.
  • He would always listen to Gloria Estefan, when we were kids, and sing along.
  • He's really great at giving lectures
  • He has an incredible smile
  • He is generous
  • He would do anything for his family
  • He gets emotional whenever all of the family is together or when his kids sing
  • He loves to shop at Nordstrom
  • He is the BEST!
Happy, Happy Birthday Dad! We love you, we miss you, and hope your day is great!!

I love that he is a TEASE... I think that is the reason why our dad's have been such good friends for so long. They both LOVE to tease. Your dad was always so much fun when we were growing up. He was like my second dad. HAPPY BIRTHDAY Bob!!!
