Let the March Begin

Today, as March starts we have the opportunity to celebrate the birthday of Baby A.  I can't believe this little wonder is turning 3.  She has such a warm outgoing and fun disposition.  Just talk to her for 5 minutes and your head will be spinning, but you will have a smile on your face.  You might also need to check to make certain your ears are attached, because she can talk them off.  Oh how I love this little girl.

I just don't know how lucky I am to have been blessed with some pretty incredible nieces and nephews.  Just last Saturday, I was heading to SLC for a Golden Anniversary Party.  I sent Amber a text and asked her what she was doing?  I told her I was on my way to SLC and asked her if she wanted to get some lunch.  We went out to lunch, Amber let me pick where I wanted to go.  I picked one of my favorites Pei Wei.  I introduced Amber to the Dan Dan noodles and edamame.  She liked them both, as I knew she would.  After lunch, I asked her if she had some time to go do a little shopping?  She humored me and let me drag her all over the valley to pick up my random shopping wackiness.  She never even complained.  I still find it hard to believe she is 20-something.  It wasn't that long ago that I was using her as an excuse to go watch all the kids movies that I wanted to see.  One day, not too long ago, I confessed to her that I often would drag her to these movies for that reason.  She laughed and told me I could still take her to them.  I might have to take her up on the offer!

Chase is in Tennessee and serving as a missionary.  I am still just in shock at the amazing young man he has become.  He is such a great example and just a genuine fun guy to be around.  He likes to hunt, hang out with his uncles, and despite stealing most of his material, is a pretty funny guy.  The future is bright for this young man and I for one cannot wait to see what the future brings for him I am looking forward to hear about his mission experiences.

Lastly is Baby Rock.  He is such a happy baby, always smiling (except in this picture).  Even when he doesn't feel well he has a contagious smile.  With the world still ahead of him, I will be on the front row watching his growth.

Yes, I truly am one lucky uncle!
