35 Wonderful Things...

In honor of Dan's 35th birthday, here are 35 things you didn't know about him...

1. He would eat, sleep, and drink FISHING if I would let him.


2. He hates carrots. But will eat them so his little princesses will eat them too. He tells them they give them princess eyes.


3. He pulled out his first grey hair and 2 grew back in its place. He's decided that touch-of-grey is sexy.


4. He WON'T wear pink. He gets enough of it being around his girls.


5. He has vanilla ice cream every night before bed in some interesting way. He's always coming up with new ice cream float ideas. Everything goes with vanilla.


6. He reads every morning before starting the day.


7. He talks in his sleep. We've had some fun conversations while he's been sleeping away.


8. He was born in California but grew up in Utah.


9. He won't let me mow the lawn. He's very particular about his yard!


10. He can't clap on beat. He took me to a concert on our first date and tried to clap on beat but it just didn't happen. I giggled the entire time.


11. He has more shoes and coats than I do. He loves the shoes!


12. He'll eat anything I put in front of him and say that he likes it even if he doesn't.


13. He tells his family he loves them every time he talks with them.


14. He graduated with high honors from dental school and received many awards in dentistry.


15. He loves sports! He always has time to watch the sports segment of the news.


16. He never wants to own a mini van.


17. All of his pants (besides his Levi's) are brown, just in different shades. I never knew there were so many shades of brown!


18. He brushes his teeth SEVERAL times a day and flosses too. I guess dentistry is a good job for him.


19. He loves being surrounded by his little girls.


20. U2 is his favorite band, with John Mayer and Jack Johnson right behind them.


21. A Utah Man is he! He loves the University of Utah. Go Utes!!


22. He always has to be doing something or he'll fall asleep. Even watching TV he has to be moving or eating something.


23. He doesn't like his picture taken. We only get family pictures every few years. It's his worst nightmare to get them done.


24. He speaks Hungarian.


25. He only likes one person to cut his hair--me.


26. He doesn't use any product or brush or comb to do his hair. It's all with the hand.


27. He only likes to eat one thing at a time off his dinner plate. He doesn't like to mix food.


28. He thinks eating celery is like eating dental floss. He doesn't like it at all.


29. He doesn't worry about what others think.


30. He dug all the trenches in our yard for the sprinklers by hand. He wouldn't spend the money to rent a trencher. He had some help from family but you would still find him outside at 11:30 in the dark with a flash light digging.


31. He loves to explore and find new things. Or learn about something new.


32. He likes to take me on a walk up and down our street after the kids are in bed asleep and tell me about his day and ask about mine while we eat Popsicles.


33. He likes to get a deal on things. He'll never buy the first thing he sees, he'll have to shop around to make sure he's getting the best thing for his money.


34. He loves when he gets home from work and the girls run to the door yelling Daddy, Daddy. It always puts a big smile on his face.


35. He is out numbered at our house, but I think he likes that. He is a wonderful daddy and husband and we love him!!


Happy 35th Birthday!

Thanks Kelsie for the fun birthday list idea!
