Happy Birthday Dad!

Happy Birthday Grandad! We love you so very much~Lauren, Luke, and Landry A very important man in my life is having a birthday this week, my Dad. My dad is everything to me. I don't think I tell him that often enough. I knew from an early age that I wanted to marry someone just like him. He is a good father, loving grandad, funny,

awesome fisherman, loves God, one of the most giving people you will ever meet (he literally would give you the shirt off his back if you needed it), awesome cook (nobody does brisket like my Dad),
master gardner (look at this!)
hard worker (he never sits still), loves my Mom, a get-R-done kind of guy, loyal, strong hands (he always needs lotion on them), encourager, one of the first people I call when I need an honest opinion,

George Strait fan (well maybe not as much as me, but I will never forget going to a concert with my Dad when I was little. George reminds me of my Dad), cattleman, good at his job (Hey, Beef it's what's for dinner!), best prayer (he can make anyone cry in a prayer),

Dog lover (here with sweet Shanea who passed away this year. He has a new one now named Jade that I can't wait to meet),
a loving grandad with the best lap to read books on,
Landry's buddy,
has the best trains that Luke asks about all the time,
Clark "Sparky" Griswald of the family, My list could truly go on about my dad. He is my everything! Happy Birthday Daddy. I love you and miss you so much. Days go by that I wish more than ever we lived closer just so I could spend more time with you. I don't tell you enough how much you mean to me....you do!
