happy birthday dad!!

My Dad turned 49 yesterday!! Crazy! It's weird watching my parents get old. You'd never guess they were getting old....he still rides his dirt bike on the 800 mile baja ride 2 times a year and runs like 3 businesses and kneeboards like a pro. I love it. He's always been a great Dad too. We've made a lot of good memories over the last 21 years and I'm so thankful to have him as a father. I really lucked out. Thanks for everything Dad. Thanks for spanking me when I was being a brat and teaching me the difference between right and wrong. I'm grateful I've got a lot of you in me....even my ugly kneecaps or lack of, eyebrows and fingers!

1 daddy memory: One day I was being a brat and my dad slapped my face, pretty lightly but I was uphauled that he would do that. I cried and ran to my room, put some blush on my hand and put a handmark on it so it'd look worse than it was so he'd feel bad. Well, I thought i had done a great job, but I guess I didn't cuz when I went back downstairs and my Dad saw it, he just very calmly put his hand on my back and said "you put make up on your face didn't you?" I was kind of embearassed. Now I think it is pretty hilarious!! I love you dad!!!!
