HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!

So you know when you think of a persons name and you automatically associate something with it like "Wow! shes really good at ________."

Those of you who know my mom can back me up on this but she really is good at SO many things... its really crazy. But here are a few things that I especially love about her.

She LOVES snow. Some days in Enumclaw when they thought there might be a chance of a tinsey bit of snow they would close the schools down and we would get to stay home. And if there was snow we would go to the Phillips house and sled down their hill and she always loved when we didn't have to go to school. I hope I'm like that too:) Thanks for wanting to be around me.

Ok, my mom LOVES Christmas! And she always has a family over and or the missionaries. She always makes Holidays special with all the traditions we have.


She is an AMAZING decorator. This is my sisters room. This is like a teens dream room!
My mom is super silly and has such a great personality, always making people feel included and loved. I love that about her.

She has always been involved in our schools, doing dances, PTA and especially a cheerleader:) Even though Mr. Carel did get mad at you for being a little too rowdy at my tennis matches:)



She is an AMAZING cook! Wow thank you for all the recipes.



She loves her Kiki.
She has this random "talent" to run into people no matter what continent she is on. Ha.













She is always helping someone. Like when I was in the NYC stationary show she flew out there to help and even road in a cab with a chair.. it was funny.. guess you had to be there:)

But she does have one flaw... She is a Utah fan? Why would you ever do that to yourself??


But most importantly she, along with my dad, have taught us the Gospel and how important it is. She has taught us all to be good people that contribute to our society. She has taught us how to be proud of our country and respect it. I love you mom. You are an amazing person. Happy Birthday!
