Daddy Dearest...

Happiest of Birthdays to the best Dad around. 

My dear sweet Poppy turned the big 5-0 yesterday.

Here are a few things about my dear ol' Pops.

1. Fountain Mountain Dew and generic puffy Cheetos. He loves em. Growing up, every time we stopped at a gas station, that was our purchase. (It has to be generic Cheetos though because he swears there is more cheese on them)
2. He is Mr. Fix-It. If he can not repair it, replace it, or re-do it, I am certain no-one can.
3. He is one outstanding chef. Makes amazing food and is my partner in crime when it comes to baking.
4. One of my earliest memories is jumping off practically anything and landing in my fathers arms. The roof, the refrigerator, a brick wall, ect....and that tradition has now been carried on to the grandcuddles.
5.He is an amazing Papa and all those kids LOVE him to death.
6.Music.This man is obsessed with it.He has so much of it, that he can listen nonstop for 4 years, and never repeat a song.
7. Rodeos. Dad used to rodeo back in the day and was amazing. Saddle bronc and bareback were his specialties  That is actually how my parents met, at a rodeo.
8. He is currently in the process of building his own motorcycle.
9. He is one of those super annoying people that is good at everything he tries. You name it, he can do it.
10. He has been the greatest dad to 5 children, a loving husband to a beautiful woman, and an incredible person for the last 50 years.

Dad, you have taught me so much and given me such a wonderful life.

 I am so grateful for your influence and guidance 

Thank you for always being there for me and being the best dad a girl could ask for. 

I love you and I hope the next 50 are just as grand...
