20 Reasons why we love Dad...Part 2

Today is my dad's 60th Birthday. Since all his kids are spread out everywhere and couldn't be with him, we thought we'd send him good internet wishes. And since there are 3 of us we are doing 20 each because 20 times 3 equals 60(thanks dad for the math brains).
The following are 20 reasons why I love my dad.

21. the way he loves my mom
22. how hard he has worked to get to where he is today
23. how he strive to be healthy in what he eats
24. how adventurous he is
25. how fearless he is in all he does
26. his sincerity for everyone he meets
27. how he is very interested in other people's names(I often don't care and I think you should)
28. how he is still very active and its important to him
29. he never gives up
30. how much he loves his job
31. how he taught all of us that church is important even when we didn't want to go
32. he would do anything for us
33. he loves all his kids and is our biggest fan
34. how passionate he is about golf
35. he would do anything to help anyone out
36. he used to help me with math homework...trust me this had to make the list cause thats not an easy task, but he still did it.
37. he took us to see many things that most people didn't get the opportunity to see
38. he is passionate about mission trips
39. his love for me and my husband

Christmas in Oklahoma

Nathan and I went to see my family in Oklahoma after Christmas. We had a great time and as my sister put it, as always we felt right at home at my Aunt Kathy and Uncle Terry's house. It was a fun holiday with both families this year!
