Happy Birthday Jeff

We are not only celebrating Thanksgiving today, but also Jeff's birthday! Every 7 years it ends up on the same day!




Happy Birthday Jeff and Daddy! We love you!!!!




Aubrey has a song for you.




I got the husband tag twice but thought it would be fun to wait to post it until Jeff's birthday. So this is for you Jeff! I tag anyone who would like to do an ode to their husband!


Where did you meet? We were in the same student apartment and ward at BYU. We knew of each other, but had never met. My brother Elliot moved in Winter semester and was called to be his hometeacher. After his first appointment with him, Elliot came to my apartment and told me that he met the coolest guy and I just had to meet him. So, he introduced us in Sunday School the next sunday and the rest is history!

How long did you date before you were married? About 6 months (typical BYU relationship!)

How long have you been married? 9 years

What is your favorite feature of his? His beautiful baby blue eyes!

What is your favorite quality of his? He is so handy - he keeps our house kept up and the yard always looks beautiful. He is also so kind to others - he never wants anyones feelings to be hurt.

Does he have a nickname for you? Badda - don't ask me what it means - it kind of morphed from a million different words. Yes, wierd I know - but we both call each other that.

What is his favorite color? Blue

What is his favorite food? He's a meat and potatoes kind of guy. He also really loves my mom's curry chicken and makes it quite frequently.

What is his favorite sport? Not a big sports fan, but we do enjoy playing raquetball together.

Does he have a hidden talent? He's pretty much good at anything he tries. He makes really cool Halloween props as I have posted before. He is really good at cleaning the floors! (my favorite hidden talent!) He knows how to keep our cars running good and if he's stumped he just calls his dad or brother in law and can follow their phone directions to fix them up. He is really fun daddy and knows how to make Aubrey giggle. He is really good at chatting. He likes to hear all the girly gossip! He also makes really good chinese food!

When and where was your first kiss? It was after our 3rd date. We were cooking in the kitchen and he kissed me there.

Do you have any children? 1 and 1 on the way.

What is your favorite thing to do as a couple? We just like hanging out together. He is my favorite person to spend time with. We also have a lot of fun on vacation when we have a lot of down time to spend together.

How old is he? 35 today!

What is his favorite type of music? 80's music

What do you admire most about him? He has such a strong desire to do what is right and to please Heavenly Father. He is always repenting for the most minor of sins because he never wants to do anything that would displease Heavenly Father. He cares for Aubrey and I so much and always wants to make sure that we are happy. He is kind and loving and fun and responsible and handy and spiritual and the best husband and daddy we could ask for!

Happy Birthday Jeffrey! I keep forgetting that he and Ryan are the same age - OLD.

Aubrey did a wonderful job on the song - what a little miss smartie pant! I'm pretty sure I can't even remember the actions to that song.

Your family is so cute! I'm so glad that you, Jeff, Aubrey, and little baby are happy and healthy. Since I was there on your first date (I was Elliot's substitute date, if I recall correctly) I can attest that there were sparks flying :) - it is so much fun to see your family all these years later.
love, Sara
