Happy 27th Jon





Happy 27th Birthday Jon

Just because he thinks blogs that do this are soooo lame I thought what better way to celebrate than do something that he will despise. Oh well we love him and wanted to share a few reasons why we think he is so great!

Obviously he is a wonderful husband and a good dad.

Super Duper smart!!! Completed his Bachelors, Masters in Engineering as well as a MBA at BYU by the time he was 25 yrs old. That does not mean he know everything though. I at times am still very right.

Go Cougars!!! Don't worry Jon has quite a collection of very fashionable BYU gear.

Can fix anything he sets his mind too. Seriously he learns how to do so much on his own
it is amazing

Apparently Jon loves flowers as much as his son Beck.

Loves his cabin

Jon loves to fish especially Knotton or Alaska.

Jon is a hard worker. He never complains about going to spend his day away from his family at the office. Not to mention the work that awaits him at home.

Jon is a great water skier and learning to be a good wake skater. He has not had as much practice as he needs this summer. I guess that is what a home and yard does to you.

You will never ever, ever, ever catch Jon in a bad mood. He always has a smile for you.

Very politically savvy. He spends a lot of time listening to talk radio as well as reading articles. He knows a lot about this country and is well informed voter. So beware if you ask he may a few strong political opinions.

Jon loves being able to play volleyball with his high school pals once a week.

Jon has good taste in music. He likes most bands until they become popular. Tonight Clap Your Hands and Say Yah are giving a free concert in honor of his birth.

As much as he does not believe, I am sure his Young Men think he is pretty cool.

Jon has a good sense of humor, although he does not think I am all that funny so his humor may be in question.

He is younger than I but I am very grateful that he just looks old for his age. I am sure many of you have noticed this.

He had begun his 2nd season of golf. Just one more step into the boring life of a business man.

Can I just say Ruben and Ed.

Enjoys traveling and fortunately is pretty willing to go often. We all loved going back to the DR with him and to see the excitement on his face as he showed us all around the amazing place. Not to mention his Spanish sounds great.

Beck and Ira think he is awesome. Beck told me on Dad’s birthday he will tell him “Happy Birthday”. So there you have it Jon.. Happy Birthday! We love you dearly.
