Happy Birthday, Mommy/Better Half/Monique!


Since the rest of the world sees pictures of Carter, Makenna, Addison and Allen without Monique, I am taking full liberty on your Birthday to embarrass you.

What we love about Mommy (unedited, I promise):
Carter - That her birthday is on the Sabbath day, playing games with her, that she's our Mom, she does the laundry for us.
Makenna - Going to the grocery store with her, going to the Nutcracker with her, playing "sweetie & momma" with her.
Addison - Her theories on 18th century England heirarchy are really quite fascinating! (Okay, so I made this up). If Addie could speak I think she'd say, "I'm a picky eater, but Mommy puts up with my pickiness and makes a valiant effort to feed me healthy food."
Allen - List would be too long, so I'll summarize by thanking you for marrying me. I love you.

Happy Birthday, Monique! One of the things that I love about you is how thoughtful you are about others. Hope you have a great day.

We're so glad you married Al too. So glad. And I'd like to hear your theories on 18th century English hierarchy sometime. Love you!

Wow! I had fun helping Carter, Kenna and Addie make BD cards for their mom while she and their dad were doing a session at the Denver Temple on Saturday morning. What a joy it is to have such a dynamic and caring daughter. I hope this year brings wonderful blessings and successes for you!
