"So much in life depends on our attitude. The way we choose to see things and respond to others makes all the difference. To do the best we can and then to choose to be happy about our circumstances, whatever they may be, can bring peace and contentment."—Thomas S. Monson

Happy 17th Birthday Taylor!


I can't believe my baby is 17 years old, but sure enough 17 years ago on January 10, 1992 a bouncing baby boy weighing in at 9 lbs. 7 oz was born at 10:30 am. What a blessing he has been to our family. We love his energy, his sense of humor and his fun, upbeat personality. He has kept us well entertained over the years with his many talents. I can't number the many sporting events we've attended to watch Taylor play, but it has been and continues to be a JOY! I made him his favorite breakfast of homemade cinnamon rolls and then he opened his gifts. Thanks alot Devin and Whitney for exposing him to Arrested Development, Seasons 1 and 2 because that is what he wanted and got for his birthday along with some other stuff. That night for dinner we went out to Famous Dave's with Grandpa (Grandma was home sick with a cold) for dinner. Taylor of course ordered ribs and pulled pork. It was delicious. We loved the HUGE birthday sundae they gave him for dessert.
He also wore his favorite shirt on his birthday Devin!

I totally agree. Taylor is a baby.

I have one word for those pictures: revolting. These images "will haunt my dreams". I find it easier to find beauty in each of Max Hall's 5 interceptions than to ever see my brother wearing a BSU shirt. I think I am going to have to avoid checking this blog for about 2 months until this post moves off of the page. No, I've got a better idea. Please excuse me, I have to go pour hydrochloric acid in my eyes.

I actually remember when he was born. And how everyone was talking about how big he was and all I could think was how small he was... random memory! Happy birthday Taylor!
