For as long as I can remember my dad has been my hero. My Dad is a special guy, anyone who has spent more than a few minutes with him knows this. He is about as friendly as they come. No one is a stranger. He knows the story of every waiter at any restaurant he has ever been to, and probably knows someone from their hometown as well. I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve found myself shrinking down in my seat at the table as I watch these conversations take place. Well today we celebrate this guys birthday!

He’s one of the kindest, most generous, funny guys I know. Growing up he was strict but forgiving. He taught us to ride bikes and play every sport imaginable. There are tons of great dads out there but Robbie and I sure got lucky!

Happy Birthday Dad! Thanks for loving me the way you do!  I hope you have another amazing birthday!
