Happy Birthday to the Daddy!!

Thursday was Zach's birthday. We had a joint celebration with Jen's family on Conference Sunday...

(Yes, birthday girl Ashliegh is wearing one of her grandma's old square-dance dresses, because uncle Zach had the girls pretending to be pioneers for some fun photos.)

Then we went to lunch with Zach's family on Thursday afternoon and had a special dinner with just our little family that night with some of Zach's favorite foods.


I had to post some pics of Zach's presents because I am so proud of my creativity with the "Birthday Jar." (OK. I really stole the idea from a wedding shower, but I think it turned out dang cute.)

Since Zach turned 34, I put in 34 reasons/pills listing why I love him. But, that didn't even come close to filling the jar. So I then added pills to redeem for 34 back massages, 34 foot massages, 34 head massages, 34 shoulder massages, and 34 full-body massages.
And the Tootsie Rolls are because even all those pills didn't fill the jar...should have bought a smaller jar.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY! WE SURE LOVE YOU MORE THAN MOST!

Happy Birthday Zach!!

LOL...love the jar idea! If I copy you I'll be sure to buy the tiniest jar I can find cuz I would never agree to 34 back massages, 34 foot massages, 34 head massages, 34 shoulder massages, and 34 full-body massages!! What a wife you are!

PS - the word verification is pooperski!!! That is funny!
