tan man

yesterday was my brother tanner's birthday. we celebrated today with a delicious italian dinner and the best chocolate cake i have ever made.
and apparently, byu got my message to "please have a great game in honor of tanner - you're #1 fan - for his birthday."

{thanks, cougars.}

tanner is a good kid. he is the most athletic kid in our family. he is growing like morning glory - every time i see him, he's a few inches taller. and i see him every week. no joke.

we all joke that he's the "pretty one" of the family - he is quite the handsome boy. tall, skinny, athletic, smart, spiritual, funny... an all around catch. but not quite yet. he's only 14. no dating for a couple more years.

tan is definitely the coolest of all of us kids. i like to think that i'm cool, but really not so much... a-team was too smart to be really cool. tay was funny enough to earn a "cool" title, but was also lucky to just have lots of cool friends. and we'll see how b dawg works high school - i'm sure he will. but tan - tanner is just all around cool. he's easy going, but not irresponsible. he's funny, but not ridiculous. he's attractive, but not too cocky (thanks to his siblings reminding him that if his head gets big, he's not as pretty). he's just an all around fantastic kid.

i love his guts. i cannot believe that he is 14, and at the same time, i was surprised he's not in high school yet. he is a mature kid for his age and i love being around him.

happy birthday, tan.

hope it was great. love ya.
