Happy Birthday to you!

This kid just turned 32!

Dallin had the idea of blowing up 32 balloons, and writing the numbers 1-32 on them.  Then the kids would give him a numbered balloon and he had to say something he remembered when he was 5 (moving from Australia to the United States) or 16 (being a punk) or 19 (noticing just prior to his mission that the organist at church was pretty hot.   It was ME of course!) or 24 (becoming a Dad) and you get the picture.  Daphne thought it was hilarious to keep giving him #32 to which he always responded by throwing it back and saying, "That's TODAY!"

Happy Birthday Arthur!
We love you!

Happy Birthday Arthur! I guess that means its about time for Doug and Arthur to go hit the greens - they usually do that around their birthdays, right? (I'm getting forgetful in my old age . . . )

What a cute idea! He looks just like Daphne! I might have to steal it for Scott's 30th in March. Looks like you have been doing lots of fun things.

Arthur, we just love you and hope you had a very happy birthday! You are the closest thing I've ever had to a brother and I am so grateful to you for helping me feel welcome in the Gariety fam. :)
