A list of things you may or may not know about The Beloved are listed throughout His Father's Day/B-day blog post - Enjoy!
Father's Day:
The Beloved is NOT a morning person- definitely a night person- you will find him prowling around the house as late as 3 a.m.
(last night he was lifting weights in the garage at 2 o'clock in the morning.)
 |
| His new watch he received for Father's day with a picture of the SLC temple on it. |
After church every Sunday The Beloved makes lunch for everyone in the family.
The Beloved's 33rd B-day
 |
| Playing a game on his phone during his B-day party - He's grounded! |
He takes turns taking the boys out for late night goody runs... like at 11:00 at night. The boys get so excited when it is there turn! When we lived in IL The Beloved and Lou would go on their goody run and then watch the raccoons play in the garbage can outside the convenient store.
 |
| You'll notice a girl in the picture... that's Little C's good friend who's our new surrogate daughter :) or so we say. |
The Beloved HATES going to bed. He'll sleep in our bed about three times a week and on the other nights I have to go on a hunt in the morning to see where he fell asleep the night before :).
 |
| Itunes gift cards so he can purchase things while playing his "super cool" fantasy game on his phone :). |
He is great at everything he does unless you have to attach something other than shoes to his feet. (skiing, rollerblading, ice-skating are out of the question). He received used golf clubs for his b-day and has been aggressively trying to develop that new found talent. This is a good and bad thing for his spouse. :)
 |
| The Beloved received Bop Its -so he can BOP our kids softly and safely when they're driving him nuts! |
He is a handy man. If something goes wrong around the house e.g. - sprinkler system, rotted floor board, disposal, etc. -
he'll fix it.
This usually takes a phone call or two to his father who relays an experienced crash course on how to solve the issue.
These men are amazing!
He is a great cook!
When The Beloved has time he is quite the gourmet chef extraordinaire!
I am way more ornery than him.
The Beloved is pretty laid back and chill unless we are packing up the car for a trip.
Scary things happen.
:)
He has all of these sports stats in his head that would amaze you.
College, professional - it's almost unnerving.
If you need to be updated on Football, basketball, baseball -
he's your man.
The Beloved would rather hang out with his family then have a guys night any day of the week.
He loves being at home, hanging out with his kids and wifey.
He loves Broadway musicals. We have seen Phantom once, Wicked twice, and are scheduled to see Les Miserables in the fall.
 |
| We had a little s'mores b-day party in the backyard - I only snapped a couple pictures -they kind of make The Beloved look like a serious polygamist. It just so happens that most of our friends have daughters :). Next time I'll capture more of the male support. :) |
The Beloved has a wonderful testimony of the gospel.
He gets emotional when he shares his love for the atonement and our Saviour, Jesus Christ. It's Beautiful.
The only thing that can put The Beloved to sleep early is when I get chatty while we're laying in bed.
I put him right to sleep.
Hmmm... don't know how I feel about that.

Still so many things to share -
*He doesn't truly have a favorite food because he is the variety man. He loves it all.. except -
* He doesn't like, ranch, mayo or any cold salads like - potato or macaroni salad.
*He possibly may be addicted to energy drinks.
*He has been blessed with a huge talent of being an incredibly skilled artist.
*He's SUPER smart. Too smart sometimes. I'm usually on the losing side of the who's right/who's wrong debate. Good thing I'm so humble :). Right.
*He's a jump into life sort of fellow - not really a planner.
*He's usually going to like you. Unless you're a loud chewer. Drives him NUTS. :)
*I think he's addicted to school.
*Calls his wife Dear
*He is fluent in American Sign Language.
*He's a romantic and a spoiler!
* He is FAST. I mean FAST. He still holds state records in UT for the 100 meter dash.
*Loves to go on dates with his eternal companion.
*Movie guy - for sure.
*If he can help you out - he will. He's the guy behind you who will pay for the rest of your groceries if you're short on change.
*When he grows up he wants to design and own an amusement park.

It's a shame our husbands didn't get to know each other better when you lived here. My hubby is a movie buff as well and a few years ago when you went to 3 movies in a row...that would be like Christmas for Gareth. ;) Sounds like he had a great bday and father's day! You are a pretty cool wife. Ü
Loved this post!! Also loved the photos, sooo funny!! What an amazing man you have there, I am super impressed. I think our husbands would get along, and be able to talk about household repairs they have conquered!! xoxoxo
