Celebrating Larry

Larry likes having the kids over for his birthday and cooking them dinner.  I think it's a wonderful way to celebrate his birthday.  This year I decided to decorate a little and make our house look like a party.  I haven't put away Christmas yet and so I just added to it.  I bought balloons and Jared and Kimleighel helped blow them up and I put them all around the room.  I thought it looked festive and fun with all that color. I didn't use much of the crepe paper I bought because I thought it was enough with the balloons and table covers.  When I asked Larry how he liked all the balloons it was so funny because he hadn't noticed them.  REALLY?  The guy is able to focus on what he's doing and block out things really well.  hahaha made me laugh out loud!
Larry had bought hamburger and made some big patties for everyone to enjoy.  The guys got full on just one and I couldn't even finish half of one.  They were good.  One of the things Larry wanted was a Birthday cake so he could have the grands help him blow out the candles.  I made a cake and put 57 candles on it....I placed them to look like "57" or else it might have looked like a bon fire. haha The grands were excited to help him blow out all his candles and our home smelled pretty smokey for a few minutes afterwards.  Larry's mom also brought Larry a cake but it was a round cake and I'm not sure all the candles would have fit. (joking)  

We loved having our kids and grands over again.  I love all the noise and action while they are here.  (maybe Larry doesn't even notice there is noise and a lot of action)  The guy makes me laugh and that is one of the reasons I fell in love with him.  Laughing is one of my favorite things to do and there is plenty of reasons to laugh being married to Larry.  He's a jokester.
I'm in love with this Birthday Boy and I hope that we get to celebrate many more birthdays together.

Larry is 57 Woo Hoo!

It's Larry's birthday today!  This guy is seriously one of the best ever born!  He is funny and makes others laugh all the time. He is a really hard worker....at his shop or on the farm the guy seldom sits still.  He is kind and always thinks of others.  He is generous and likes to help others.  He is spiritual and studies hard to know Heavenly Father and Jesus.  He likes to makes my dreams come true and has done a really good job at it.  My life is a happy one because of Him!  I'm happy that this year he was able to find a truck that he has been looking for for years.  He deserves to have some of his dreams come true as well. 

People are drawn to Larry.  I think there are many who think they are Larry's favorite because he just has a way of making others feel loved.  I have heard others say that Larry is their best friend and I know it's because of his caring heart and the interest he shows to others.  Larry is kind and wonderful and I'm glad that he is celebrating another birthday! 

Hooray for Birthdays!  Hooray for Larry!  Hooray for Eternity!
