HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR BOY TROY...HE IS THE MAN!

This guy is full of it...talent, humor, sensitivity, energy, creativity and intelligence. When he was born, he was in a hurry to get here and arrived at 37 weeks. He kept us hopping from the start.

























He is friendly, outgoing, and fun to be around.
He showed us his musical talent at a very young age when he sang "Take me out to the Ballgame" to a gathering of women friends of his Mother's. It was a "hit...a homerun!"










Here are his beginnings of creativity creating his own sandcastle with his Dad. He's loved the sand ever since!

We learned early of his creative imagination as his bestfriend became "baby monster" when he missed his older siblings going off to school.

In high school, as you might guess, Troy was in drama and music and even found his niche in sports as a pole vaulter.

Troy served an LDS mission to Jamaica which suited him just fine. He loved the work and the people.
Oh, his antics!
Here is a tarantula he and his cousins found in Oklahoma at a reunion...much to our chagrine!
He is a kid at heart. All the little ones love Troy...big people love him too.
Troy is an excellent chef and comes up with new recipes all the time.
He works hard at his business which is another creative venture
in his life and we wish him well in those endeavors.
He's given us a scare or two...or three... concussion, stitches, broken bones and brain surgery!








He loves his family...first his bride, then their son and their little daughter.
What a sweet family!





















Here he is with Drew B keeping the laughter going during family photos.

He's always hanging out with pretty ladies!














Happy Birthday, son, and know that we love you tons!!! Have a great day!!!
