Happy Birthday Steph!







On May 15th, Stephani gave birth to beautiful baby Noah! Our baby has a baby of her own. It is almost impossible to believe that it was 24 years ago that I sat and held her in my arms dreading how fast those "infant" days would go by. Sitting and holding didn't happen too often with two toddlers in the house. I could never have realized how fast 24 years would go by. In those 24 years she has brought us so much joy and fun and love. Here are some of the things I remember about Stephani:









  • She was the best baby ever!



  • She was the worst 4 year old in day care. I had to go get her on several occasions.



  • She hated naps.



  • She would cry to get on the bus with Britni and Heath before she was old enough to go to school.



  • Her and Ciara pulling everything out of her closet when they played.



  • Hours and hours at the softball park.



  • The highest scorer in little dribbler history!



  • Coming home from school crying because her hermit crab got pulled out of its shell.



  • Always wanting her school work to be perfect.



  • Threatening to go to the school counselor because she wanted to quit piano lessons.



  • Making high school cheerleader even with a bum leg.



  • An awesome tennis player!



  • A great 3 point shooter in basketball and could handle the ball pretty well too.



  • Wearing really high heels to junior high graduation.



  • She was one of the first girl pole vaulters at Harmony and went to regionals



  • Earning her young womanhood award mainly because she knew how bad I wanted her to.



  • Bringing HER dog buddy home---he still lives with us.



  • Showing the grand champion dairy heffer



  • A pretty decent snow boarder



  • Can put you through a really hard workout and does not let you quit!



  • Always try to put the Lord first in her life. Fulfills her callings diligently.



  • Managed to get ALOT of parking tickets at BYU.



  • Loves all her family especially her neices and nephews!



  • Married an awesome guy in the temple.



  • Is an awesome mom to a beautiful new baby boy!



HAVE A GREAT DAY STEPHANI! WE LOVE YOU!
